Q:2

In Figure 9.4, let B = 0.2 cos 120πt T, and assume that the conductor joining the two ends of the resistor
is perfect. It may be assumed that the magnetic field produced by I(t) is negligible. Find (a) Vab(t); (b)
I(t).

Q:3

(a) Show that the ratio of the amplitudes of the conduction current density and the displacement
current density is σ/ω*e for the applied field E = Em cos ωt. Assume µ = µ0. (b) What is the
amplitude ratio if the applied field is E = Eme^(−t/τ) , where τ is real?

Q:4

The electric field intensity in the region 0 < x < 5, 0 < y < π/12, 0 < z < 0.06 m in free space is given by E
= [C sin 12y sin a*z cos (2 × 10^10t)] ax V/m. Beginning with the ∇ × E relationship, use Maxwell’s
equations to find a numerical value for a, if it is known that a is greater than zero.

Q:5

In region 1, z < 0, 1 = 2 × 10^−11 F/m, µ1 = 2 × 10^−6 H/m, and σ1 = 4 × 10^−3 S/m; in region 2, z > 0,
2 = 1/2, µ2 = 2µ1, and σ2 = σ1/4. It is known that E1 = (30ax + 20ay + 10az) cos 10^9t V/m at P(0, 0,
0−). (a) Find EN1, Et1, DN1, and Dt1 at P1. (b) Find JN1 and Jt1 at P1. (c) Find Et2, Dt2, and Jt2 at P2(0,
0, 0+). (d) (Harder) Use the continuity equation to help show that JN1 − JN2 = ∂ DN2/∂t − ∂ DN1/∂t, and
then determine DN2, JN2, and EN2.
