[HW6] A rod of mass m is being pulled by a force F such that it is sliding with a constant speed, as shown in the figure, on two parallel frictionless conducting rails a distance L apart. There is a resistor R connected across the rails and a uniform magnetic field B = B, filling the entire region. Find the magnitude of the applied force F in terms of the given parameters in the problem (not necessarily all of them).
