Question
STATEMENT–1 : Consider the arrangement shown below. A smooth conducting rod, CD, is lying on a smooth U-shaped conducting wire making good electrical contact with it. The U-shape conducting wire is fixed and lies in horizontal plane. There is a uniform and constant magnetic field B in vertical direction (perpendicular to plane of page in figure). If the magnetic field strength is decreased, the rod moves towards right.
STATEMENT–2 : In the situation of statement-1, the direction in which the rod will slide is that which tends to maintain constant flux through the loop. Providing a larger loop area counteracts the decrease in magnetic flux. So the rod moves to the right independent of the fact that the direction of magnetic field is into the page or out of the page.
- Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1
- Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1
- Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
- Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.
The correct answer is: Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1
Obviously statement 2 is correct explanation of statement-1

Statement-1 : A resistance R is connected between the two ends of the parallel smooth conducting rails. A conducting rod lies on these fixed horizontal rails and a uniform constant magnetic field B exists perpendicular to the plane of the rails as shown in the figure. If the rod is given a velocity v and released as shown in figure, it will stop after some time. The total work done by magnetic field is negative.
Statement-2 : If force acts opposite to direction of velocity its work done is negative.
