The magnetic field in a region is given by
where L is a fixed length. A conducting rod of length L lies along the Y-axis between the origin and the point (0, L, 0). If the rod moves with a velocity v = v0
, find the emf induced between the ends of the rod.
Given:

Where B = magnetic field, y = distance from origin on y axis, L = fixed length.
Velocity of rod = v0 i
Diagram:

Formula used:
Now, we consider a small element dy at a distance y from the origin.
Emf induced in the element dE = Bvdy, where B = magnetic field, v = velocity, dy = length of element
⇒ ![]()
Integrating on both sides with proper limits, we get

=> Total emf ![]()
