13. Figure shows a rectangular conductor PQRS in which
the conductor PQ is free to move in a uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to the plane of the

PQ possesses resistance r. When the arm PQ is pulled outward from x 0 to x 2b and is then
moved backward to x 0 with constant speed v, obtain the expressions for the flux and the
induced emf. Sketch the variations of these quantities with distance 0 x 2b.
14) A rectangular loop and a circular loop are moving out of a uniform magnetic field
