Solution

The correct option is D The maximum potential difference induced across the pendulum is 2BLgLsin(θ2)

From the figure,

h=L(1cosθ)

The maximum emf will be induced when the velocity of the pendulum is maximum, i.e. when the pendulum is at the lowest position.

The maximum velocity of the pendulum is,

v2max=u2+2gh

=02+2gL(1cosθ) [u=0 ]

=2gL×2sin2(θ2)

vmax=2gLsin(θ2)

So, option (A) is correct.

Now, the maximum induced potential difference is,

Emax=BvmaxL

=B×2gLsin(θ2)×L

Emax=2BLgLsin(θ2)

Thus, option (D) is also correct.
