MCQ
A horizontal straight conductor kept in north-south direction falls under gravity, then
  • A
    A current will be induced from South to North
  • B
    A current will be induced from North to South
  • No induce e.m.f. along the length of conductor
  • D
    An induced e.m.f. is generated along the length of conductor

Answer

Correct option: C.
No induce e.m.f. along the length of conductor
c
(c) No induced emf is set up as the magneitc field line of earth is not cut br the failling conductor.
