A conductor lies along the ` z`-axis at ` -1.5 le z lt 1.5 m` and carries a fixed current of `10.0 A` in `- hat(a)_(z)` direction ( see figure). For a field `vec(B) = 3.0 xx 10^(-4) e^(-0.2x) hat(a)_(y) T`, find the power required to move the conductor at constant speed to `x = 2.0 m , y = 0 m ` in `5xx 10^(-3)s` . Assume parallel motion along the ` x-axis`. A. `1.57 W`B. `2.97 W`C. `14.85 W`D. `29.7 W`

Answer» Correct Answer - 2
`F_(ext)=B(x)IL`
`P=1/tunderset(0)overset(2)intF_(ext)dx=1/tunderset(0)overset(2)intB(x)ILdx=1/(5xx10^(-3))underset(0)overset(2)int3xx10^(-4)e^(-0.2x)xx10xx3dx`
`=9[1-1/e^(0.4)]=2.96`
