Magnetic Force on Conducting Loops

Question

Two identical conducting loops with radius $$r$$ and resistance $$R$$ are placed in a uniform magnetic field $$B$$ perpendicular to their planes. Loop 1 is stationary while loop 2 moves with constant acceleration $$a$$ perpendicular to the field. At the instant when loop 2's velocity is $$v$$, what is the ratio of the magnetic force on loop 2 to the magnetic force on loop 1?

Accepted Answer

Undefined (the force on loop 1 is zero, making the ratio indeterminate)

Answer

$$v^2/(aR)$$

Answer

$$v/(aR)$$

Answer
