Two parallel rails with negligible resistance are 10.0 cm

Chapter 31, Problem 37

(choose chapter or problem)

Two parallel rails with negligible resistance are 10.0 cm apart and are connected by a resistor of resistance R3 5 5.00 V. The circuit also contains two metal rods having resistances of R1 5 10.0 V and R2 5 15.0 V sliding along the rails (Fig. P31.37). The rods are pulled away from the resistor at constant speeds of v1 5 4.00 m/s and v2 5 2.00 m/s, respectively. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude B 5 0.010 0 T is applied perpendicular to the plane of the rails. Determine the current in R3.
