Case : Read the passage and answer the question(s).

Let us consider a straight conductor moving in a uniform and time-independent magnetic field. Figure shows a rectangular conductor PQRS in which the conductor PQ is free to move. The rod PQ is moved towards the left with a constant velocity v as shown in the figure. PQRS forms a closed circuit enclosing an area that changes as PQ moves. The length RQ = x and RS = l and the magnetic flux is ΦB enclosed by the loop PQRS.

The EMF so produced can also be explained by which of the following?

Options:

Ampere's Law

Biot-Savart's Law

Coulomb's Force

Lorentz Force

Correct Answer:

Lorentz Force

Explanation:

Lorentz force : F = qvB
