An iron (density ρ) rod with length L, cross sectional area A, spans across two parallel, metal train tracks. The tracks are connected to a power supply and have a potential ∆V across them. Between the tracks are placed magnets such that the B-field points directly upwards with strength B. What is the acceleration of the iron rod be the moment it starts from rest? What will acceleration be as a function of speed as it continues? Assume the contact is frictionless between the tracks and the rod so that no force of friction needs to be overcome. What will the top speed of the rod be under these conditions?

The velocity field in a potential flow is governed by the two kinematic equations grad*u=0 and grad×u=0. The same two equations, grad*B=0 and grad×B=0, govern the distribution of static magnetic fields, and indeed many of the potential flows discussed in mathematics texts were originally derived as magnetic field distributions by nineteenth-century physicists. Where does Newton's second law enter into such velocity distributions?

A metal crossbar of mass m slides without friction on two long parallel conducting rails a distance b apart. A resistor R is connected across the rails at one end; compared with R, the resistance of the bar and rails is negligible. There is a uniform field B perpendicular to the plane of the figure. At time t = 0 the crossbar is given a velocity of magnitude v0 toward the right. What happens next? Does the rod ever stop moving? If so when? How far does it go? What about conservation of energy?
