A conducting bar of mass m = 18.0 g and resistance R = 1.89 N slides down two conducting rails that are frictionless and have no electrical resistance. These rails make an angle 0 = 40.0° with the horizontal and are separated by a distance l = 20.0 cm, as shown. In addition, a uniform magnetic field B = 712 mT is applied vertically upward. The bar is released from rest and slides down. R b (b) As the bar continues to slide, the forces approach equilibrium.

Question

Please just help with this question: What would be the terminal velocity of the rod if all the conditions of part (b) of the problem where held, except there was also friction with a kinetic coefficient of ?k=0.0215?

(Note: I believe the answer for b) is the induced current of 0.049 A if it helps)
