Answer

a. 6.0 mV. b. 0.813V. The Earth’s field is small and the motional emfs are not important in these situations.

Work Step by Step

a. $$\epsilon = vBL=(80.47m/s)(0.50\times10^{-4}T)(1.5m)=6.0\times10^{-3}V$$ This is rather small, and not very noticeable. b. $$\epsilon = vBL=(252.58m/s)(0.50\times10^{-4}T)(64.4m)=0.813V$$ This is rather small, and not very noticeable.
