Question
In 1832, Faraday proposed that the apparatus shown in Figure P20.64 could be used to generate electric current from the water owing in the Thames River.2 Two conducting plates of length a and width b are placed facing one another on opposite sides of the river, a distance w apart and immersed entirely. The ow velocity of the river is , and the vertical component of Earths magnetic eld is B. Show that the current in the load resistor R iswhere is the resistivity of the water. (b) Calculate the short-circuit current (R 0) if a 100 m, b 5.00 m, v 3.00 m/s, B 50.0 T, and 100 m.
