A 50 g horizontal metal bar, 15-cm-long, is free to slide up and down between two tall, vertical metal rods that are 15
cm apart. A 5.5×10-2 T magnetic field is directed perpendicular to the plane of the rods. The bar is raised to near the
top of the rods, and a 1.2 resistor is connected across the two rods at the top. Then the bar is dropped.
Part A
What is the terminal speed at which the bar falls? Assume the bar remains horizontal and in contact with the rods at
all times.
