प्रश्न
How does one understand this motional emf by invoking the Lorentz force acting on the free charge carriers of the conductor? Explain.

उत्तर
The magnetic force `(qvecvxxvecB)`component of the Lorentz force is responsible for motional electromotive force. When a conductor is moved through a magnetic field, the magnetic force tries to push the free electrons through the wire, and this creates the motional EMF.

Two infinitely large plane thin parallel sheets having surface charge densities σ1 and σ2 (σ1 > σ2) are shown in the figure. Write the magnitudes and directions of the net fields in the regions marked II and III.

An electron beam projected along the positive x-axis deflects along the positive y-axis. If this deflection is caused by a magnetic field, what is the direction of the field? Can we conclude that the field is parallel to the z-axis?
An electron is moving along the positive x-axis. You want to apply a magnetic field for a short time so that the electron may reverse its direction and move parallel to the negative x-axis. This can be done by applying the magnetic field along
(a) y-axis
(b) z-axis
(c) y-axis only
(d) z-axis only
