Two metal strips each of length 1 are clamped parallel to each other on a horizontal floor with a separation b between them A wire of mass m lies on them perpendicularly as shown in figure 34 E8 A vertically upward magnetic field of strength B exists in the space The metal strips are smooth but the coefficient of friction between the wire and the floor is u A current i is established when the switch S is closed at the instant 0 Discuss the motion of the wire after the switch is closed How far away from the strips will the wire reach S
