A conducting bar of mass m = 0.550 kg is moving at velocity v0 = 1.60 m/s on two frictionless wires that are L = 4.20 m apart and connected by a resistor, R. The bar starts out with x0 = 10.0 m between it and the resistor. A magnetic field B = 6.00 T points out of the screen. What maximum value must R be so that the bar stops before hitting the resistor? 1000, answer in Ohms; 3 sig figs. B out of screen

A conducting bar of mass m = 0.550 kg is moving at velocity v 0 = 1.60 m / s on two frictionless wires that are L = 4.20 m apart and connected by a resistor, R . The bar starts out with x 0 = 10.0 m between it and the resistor. A magnetic field B = 6.00 T points out of the screen. What maximum value must R be so that the bar stops before hitting the resistor? 1000, answer in Ohms; 3 sig figs.
