XPQY is a vertical smooth long loop having a total resistance R where PX is parallel to QY and the separation between them is . A constant magnetic field B perpendicular to the plane of the loop exists in the entire space. A rod CD of length L and mass m is made to slide down from rest under gravity as shown in the figure. The terminal speed acquired by the rod is _______ m/s. (g = acceleration due to gravity) [2026]
