Consider the situation shown in the figure. The wire $PQ$ has a negligible resistance and is made to slide on the three rails with a constant speed of $5 \, cm/s$. Find the current in the $10 \, \Omega$ resistor when the switch $S$ is connected to the middle rail. (Given: $B = 1.0 \, T$) (in $mA$)

The figure shows an apparatus suggested by Faraday to generate electric current from a flowing river. Two identical conducting plates of length $a$ and width $b$ are placed parallel facing one another on opposite sides of the river flowing with velocity $u$ at a distance $d$ apart. Now both the plates are connected by a load resistance $R$. Then the current through the load $R$ is: (Consider the vertical component of the magnetic field produced by the earth is $B_v$ and the resistivity of river water is $\rho$.)
