JEE Main 10 April 2023, Shift 1, Physics Q58

Question 58 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 28 of 30, Section B.

A 1 m long metal rod XYXY completes the circuit as shown in figure. The plane of the circuit is perpendicular to the magnetic field of flux density 0.15 T. If the resistance of the circuit is 5 Ω5\,\Omega, the force needed to move the rod in direction, as indicated, with a constant speed of 4 m/s will be ____________ 10−3 N10^{-3}\,N.

The figure, in words

Rectangular circuit with a 5 ohm resistor on the left side; a vertical metal rod XY (X at top, Y at bottom) slides on the top and bottom rails, velocity v drawn as an arrow to the right; magnetic field into the page shown as crosses throughout.
