The potential difference appearing across the ends of a conductor as it passes perpendicularly through a magnetic field depends upon
A) the flux density of the field
B) the length of the conductor within the field
C) the velocity of the conductor
D) all the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction, the potential difference induced in a conductor as it passes through a magnetic field is directly proportional to the flux density of the field, the length of the conductor within the field, and the velocity of the conductor. Therefore, all the above factors affect the potential difference induced in the conductor.
