Question:

A 12.0-m-long steel beam is accidentally dropped by a construction crane from a height of 9.00 m. The horizontal component of the Earth’s magnetic field over the region is 18.0 µT. What is the induced emf in the beam just before impact with the Earth? Assume the long dimension of the beam remains in a horizontal plane, oriented perpendicular to the horizontal component of the Earth’s magnetic field.
