SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the separation of induced charge in a moving block conductor within a magnetic field. The right-hand rule is applied to determine the direction of current, which flows from right to left, resulting in positive charges accumulating on the left side and negative charges on the right. The conclusion confirms that the separation of induced charge is 1, clarifying the misunderstanding regarding the charge distribution. This understanding is crucial for solving related physics problems involving electromagnetic induction.
