A conductor lies along the z-axis at -1.5 ≤ z< 1.5 m and carries a fixed current of 10.An in-az direction (see figure).
B = 3.0 x 10-4 e-0.2x ay T, find the power required to move the conductor at constant speed to x = 2.0 , y = 0  in 5 x10-3 s. Assume parallel motion along the x axis.

  • 1.57 W

  • 2.97 W

  • 04.85 W

  • 29.7 W

Solution

B.

2.97 W
