A truck is carrying a steel beam of length 16.0 m on a freeway. An accident causes the beam to be dumped off the truck and slide horizontally along the ground at a speed of 24.0 m/s. The velocity of the center of mass of the beam is northward while the length of the beam maintains an east–west orientation. The vertical component of the Earth's magnetic field at this location has a magnitude of 31.0 ?T. What is the magnitude of the induced emf between the ends of the beam?
