Find the current in the wire for the configuration shown in the figure. Wire PQ has negligible resistance. B, the magnetic field is coming out of the paper. θ is a fixed angle made by PQ travelling smoothly over two conducting parallel wires separated by a distance d.

                  

Hint: The induced emf depends on the change in magnetic flux.
Step 1: The induced emf is given by; ε=|-dt|=|-d(BA)dt|=BdAdt=Bddxdt=vdB
Step 2: This induced emf make the flow of current in the closed circuit of resistance R.
I=dvBRand is independent of q.
