Problem
When a current-carrying conductor is placed in a uniform magnetic field that is perpendicular to the current, charges accumulate on opposite sides of the conductor, producing a transverse potential difference. What is this potential difference called?
(a) Induced electromotive force
(b) Contact potential
(c) Hall voltage
(d) Seebeck voltage
