Question: A rectangular copper loop of mass 1 0 0 g and resistance 2 . 0 is in a region of uniform magnetic field of strength

A rectangular copper loop of mass 100 g and resistance 2.0 is in a region of uniform magnetic field of strength 3.0T that is perpendicular to the area enclosed by the ring and horizontal to Earths surface (see below). The width of the loop is =25cm. The loop is let go from rest when it is at the edge of the nonzero magnetic field region. (a) If the loop were long enough for it to reach terminal velocity before exiting the region of magnetic field, what would be its terminal velocity? (b) Find an expression for the speed as a function of time while the top of the loop is still in the magnetic field.
