If the earth's magnetic field has the strength B, the shuttle/satellite system is moving with a velocity v, and the tether has a length L, calculate the EMF E from one end of the tether to the other.
E=BvL, where we consider only that part of B which is perpendicular to v and L.
do you know the formula to find EMF
Use Electromagnetic Induction principles
i need answer it will be helpful if you would explain me and get me to the answer
i am a good learner...it wont take time...lol
Whenever a conductor moves in a magnetic field, an electric field gets induced in the conductor, which creates a potential difference across its ends.
and electric field makes voltage difference...which increases as it gets to end...I know upto there
Look for the words 'the equb. is reached where the magnetic force becomes equal to electric force. Also the electric field here is not conservative.

yes. it is across the ends
THATS IT...THE ANSWER IS SO SIMPLE...
