\mathrm{}Here, l=0.1 \mathrm{~m}, \mathrm{v}=\mathrm{ms}^{-1}

\mathrm{I}=50 \mathrm{~A}, \mathrm{~B}=1.25 \mathrm{mT}=1.25 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~T}

The induced emf is, \mathrm{\varepsilon=\mathrm{B} / \mathrm{v}}

The mechanical power is

\mathrm{\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{P}=e \mathrm{I}=\mathrm{BlvI}=1.25 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.1 \times 1 \times 50 \\ & =6.25 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~W}=6.25 \mathrm{~mW} \end{aligned}}
