In the accompanying figure, the rails, connecting end piece, and rod all have a resistance per unit length of . The rod moves to the left at v = 3.0 m/s. If everywhere in the region, what is tire current in the circuit (a) when a = 8.0 cm? (b) when a = 5.0 cm ? Specify also the sense of the current flow.
Check Your Understanding When using Kirchhoff’s laws, you need to decide which loops to use and the direction of current flow through each loop. In analyzing the circuit in Example 10.7, the direction of current flow was chosen to be clockwise, from point a to point b. How would the results change if the direction of the current was chosen to be counterclockwise, from point b to point a?

Small household electrical devices, such as vacuum cleaners, televisions, and floor lamps, each draw a different amount of current, but all require 120 volts to operate. Are the outlets in of a power strip, wired in series or parallel? Explain.
If a current of one- or two-tenths of an ampere were to flow into one of your hands and out the other, you would probably be electrocuted. But if the same current were to flow into your hand and out the elbow above the same hand, you would survive even though the current might be large enough to burn your flesh. Explain.
