Solution
The angular velocity of the disc is ω. Also, the magnetic field of magnitude B is perpendicular to the disc.
Let us take a circular element of thickness da at a distance a from the centre.
Linear speed of the element at a from the centre, v = ωa
Now,
\[de = Blv\]
\[de = B \times da \times a\omega\]
\[ \Rightarrow e = \int_0^r \left( B\omega a \right)da\]
\[ e = \frac{1}{2}B\omega r^2\]
