A metallic rod of mass per unit length0.5 kg m-1is lying horizontally on a smooth inclined plane which makes an angle30owith the horizontal. The rod is not allowed to slide down by flowing a current through it when a magnetic field of induction0.25 Tis acting on it in the vertical direction. The current flowing in the rod to keep it stationary isNEET 2018

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

For equilibrium of conductor


ilBcos⁡θ=mgsin⁡θ

i=mglBtan⁡θ=mlgtan⁡θB 

i=0.5×9.80.25×13=11.3 A.
