In Fig. 32-7, described in Problem 32.12, what is the acceleration of the rod when its speed down the incline is ν?

Problem 32.12

The metal bar of length L, mass m, and resistance R depicted in Fig. 32-7(a) slides without friction on a rectangular circuit composed of resistanceless wire resting on an inclined plane. There is a vertical uniform magnetic field Find the terminal speed of the bar (that is, the constant speed it attains).
