a)The current in the rod rises as the time passes whenever the switch is closed. The magnetic field strength grows as the rod advances to the right, therefore the induced current increases until it equals the current flowing through the battery. Because the maximal induced emf in the rod and the battery are the identical at this moment, the velocity becomes constant (terminal), so the rod reaches Terminal velocity when
