Solution

Motional emf (electromotive force) is the voltage generated across a conductor when it moves through a magnetic field.

When a conductor (like a metal rod) moves at a velocity (v) through a magnetic field (B), the free charges inside it experience a Lorentz force. This force pushes positive and negative charges toward opposite ends of the conductor, creating a potential difference. 

ε = Blv

Where:

B is the magnetic field strength.

l is the length of the conductor.

v is the velocity of the conductor.
