Lenz’s law states that the polarity of induced emf is such that it tends to produce a current which opposes the change in magnetic flux that produces it. Yes, emf will be induced in the rod as there is change in magnetic flux. When a metallic rod held horizontally along east-west direction, is allowed...

Lenz’s law states that the polarity of induced emf is such that it tends to produce a current which opposes the change in magnetic flux that produces it. Yes, emf will be induced in the rod as there is change in magnetic flux. When a metallic rod held horizontally along east-west direction, is allowed to fall freely under gravity i.e. fall from north to south , the intensity of magnetic lines of earth’s magnetic field changes through it i.e. the magnetic flux changes and hence the induced emf in it. read less

The vertical component of earth's magnetic field will be cut by the movement of the horizontal rod,so a motional emf will be generated across the ends of the rod.

yes, Because earth horizontal magentic field is from south to north, and because of gain in vel due to fall there will be induced emf vBl (vel * horizontal earth magnetic field * lenght of rod)
