A conducting rod PQ of length l=1.0m is moving with a uniform speed v=2m/s in a uniform magnetic field B=4.0T directed into the paper. A capacitor of capacity C=10μF is connected as shown in the figure. Then charge on plate A(in μC) is

Solution
According to Flemings right-hand rule induced current flows from P to Q. Hence P is at higher potential and Q is at lower potential. Therefore A is positively charged and B is negatively charged.
Due to change in magnetic flux, potential difference generated in the loop is V=Bvl Charge on capacitor is Q=CV=C(Bvl)=10×10−6×4×2×1=80μC
