Question

The conducting bar illustrated as shown moves on two frictionless, parallel rails in the presence of a uniform magnetic field directed into the page. The bar has mass m, and its length is ℓ. The bar is given an initial velocity vi to the right and is released at t = 0. (A) Using Newton’s laws, find the speed of the bar as a function of time after it is released. (B) Show that the same result is found by using an energy approach.
