A 0.50 m0.50\,\text{m} long conducting rod slides on two parallel rails that form a closed rectangular circuit containing a 2.0 Ω2.0\,\Omega resistor. The region is filled with a uniform magnetic field of 0.80 T0.80\,\text{T} directed vertically downward. If the rod is pulled horizontally with a constant speed of 3.0 m s−13.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}, calculate: (i) the magnitude of the induced electromotive force, (ii) the current through the resistor.
