MCQ
Two long parallel horizontal rails, a distance $l$ apart and each has a resistance $\lambda$ per  unit length are joined at one end by a resistance $R$. A perfectly conducting rod $MN$ of mass  $m$ is free to slide along the rails without friction. There is a uniform magnetic field of  induction $B$ normal to the plane of paper and directed into the paper. A variable force $F$ is applied to the rod $MN$ such that, as the rod moves, a constant current $i$ flows through $P$. The applied force $F$ as function of distance $x$ of the rod from $R$ is

 

  • A
    $i\,lB-\frac{2m \lambda i^2}{B^2 l^2}(R + 2 \lambda x)$
  • B
    $i\,lB+ \frac{4m \lambda i^2}{B^2 l^2}(R - 2 \lambda x)$
  • $i\,lB+ \frac{2m \lambda i^2}{B^2 l^2}(R + 2 \lambda x)$
  • D
    none of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$i\,lB+ \frac{2m \lambda i^2}{B^2 l^2}(R + 2 \lambda x)$
c
$\mathrm{F}-\mathrm{i} \ell \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{ma}$            ........$(1)$

$\mathrm{B} \ell \mathrm{v}=\mathrm{i}(\mathrm{R}+2 \lambda \mathrm{x})$           ..........$(2)$

$\left(\frac{d V}{d x}\right)=\left(\frac{2 \lambda i}{B \ell}\right)$            ..........$(3)$

$a=V\left(\frac{d v}{d x}\right)=\left(\frac{2 \lambda i}{B \ell}\right)\left(\frac{i(R+2 \lambda x)}{B \ell}\right)$

$\mathrm{a}=\frac{2 \lambda \mathrm{i}^{2}}{\mathrm{B}^{2} \ell^{2}}(\mathrm{R}+2 \lambda \mathrm{x})$             ...........$(4)$
