Answer

Thermal energy is being generated in the rod at a rate of $~~0.90~W$

Work Step by Step

In part (c), we found that the induced current is $1.5~A$ We can find the power generated in the rod: $P = i^2~R = (1.5~A)^2(0.40~\Omega) = 0.90~W$ Thermal energy is being generated in the rod at a rate of $~~0.90~W$
