A metal rod of length (L) moves with velocity (v), perpendicular to its length, in a magnetic field B, which is perpendicular to
Alborosie

Explanation:

If a metal rod of length L moves with velocity v is moving perpendicular to its length, in a magnetic field B, the induced emf is given by :

\epsilon=Blv

The electric field in the conductor is given by :

E=\dfrac{\epsilon}{l}\\\\E=\dfrac{Blv}{l}\\\\E=Bv

It is clear that the electric field is independent of the length of the rod. If the length of the rod is doubled, the electric field in the rod remains the same.

A rescue pilot drops a survival kit while her plane is flying at an altitude of 1.5 km with a forward velocity of 100.0 m/s. If
tresset_1 [31]

1750 meters.  
First, determine how long it takes for the kit to hit the ground. Distance over constant acceleration is: 
d = 1/2 A T^2
 where
 d = distance
 A = acceleration
 T = time 
 Solving for T, gives
 d = 1/2 A T^2
 2d = A T^2
 2d/A = T^2
 sqrt(2d/A) = T 
 Substitute the known values and calculate.
 sqrt(2d/A) = T
 sqrt(2* 1500m / 9.8 m/s^2) = T
 sqrt(3000m / 9.8 m/s^2) = T
 sqrt(306.122449 s^2) = T
 17.49635531 s = T 
 Rounding to 4 significant figures gives 17.50 seconds. Since it will take
17.50 seconds for the kit to hit the ground, the kit needs to be dropped 17.50
seconds before the plane goes overhead. So just simply multiply by the velocity. 
17.50 s * 100 m/s = 1750 m
