In a certain region of space near earth's surface, a uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnitude B exists above a level defined to be y = 0. Below y = 0 , the field abruptly becomes zero (seethe figure). A vertical square wire loop has resistivity rho mass density rhom, diameter d, and side length l. It is initially at rest with its lower horizontal side at y = 0 and is then allowed to fall under gravity, with its plane perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. a) While the loop is still partially immersed in the magnetic field (as it fallsinto the zero-field region), determine the magnetic "drag" forcethat acts on it at the moment when its speed is v.
b) Assume that the loop achieves a terminal velocity vt before its upper horizontal side exits the field. Determine a formulafor vt
c) If the loop is made of copper and B = 0.80 T find vt
