JEE Main | 2014Magnetic field due to currentHard

Question

A conductor lies along the z-axis at -1.5 ≤ z < 1.5 m and carries a fixed current of 10.0 A in - direction(see figure). For a field = 3.0 × 10-4e-0.2x T, find the power required to move the conductor at constant speed to x = 2.0 m, y = 0 m in 5 × 10-3 s. Assume parallel motion along the x-axis
       

Options

A.1.57 W
B.2.97 W
C.14.85 W
D.29.7 W

Solution

       
Average Power  
W = Fdx
        = 3.0 × 10-4e-0.2x × 10 × 3 dx
        = 9 × 10-3 e-0.2 x dx
        =[e-0.2 × 2 +1 ]
        × [1-e-0.4 ]
        = 9 × 10-3 × (0.33)
        = 2.97 × 10-3 J
   P == 2.97 W
