Question: The 10-cm-wide, zero-resistance slide wire shown in the figure is pushed toward the 2.0 Omega resistor at a steady speed of 0.50 m/s. The magnetic field strength is 0.50 T.
1. How big is the pushing force? (in N)
2. How much power does the pushing force supply to the wire? (in W)
3. What is the magnitude of the induced current? (in A)
4. What is the direction of the induced current? (clockwise or counterclockwise)
5. How much power is dissipated in the resistor? (in W)
