1. zero
2. \(\frac{1}{8} \omega {B} l^{2}\)
3. \(\frac{1}{2} \omega {B} l^{2}\)
4. \(B\omega l^2\)

Consider the situation shown in the figure. The wire \(AB\) is slid on the fixed rails with a constant velocity. If the wire \(AB\) is replaced by a semi-circular wire, the magnitude of the induced current will:

          

1.  increase

2.  remain the same

3.  decrease 

4.  increase or decrease depending on whether the-semicircle bulges towards the resistance or away from it
