21N.2.HL.TZ0.c.ii

A square loop of side 5.0 cm enters a region of uniform magnetic field at t = 0. The loop exits the region of magnetic field at t = 3.5 s. The magnetic field strength is 0.94 T and is directed into the plane of the paper. The magnetic field extends over a length 65 cm. The speed of the loop is constant.

The resistance of the loop is 2.4 Ω. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force on the loop as it enters the region of magnetic field.
