Problem

A uniform spherical metallic ball of mass mm, resistivity ρ\rho, and radius RR is kept on a smooth friction-less horizontal ground. A horizontal uniform, constant magnetic field BB exists in the space parallel to the surface of ground. The ball was suddenly given an impulse perpendicular to magnetic field such that ball begin to move with velocity vv without losing the contact with ground. Find the time in seconds required to reduce its velocity by half.
