Question 1: [CLO1][PLO1][C3] [10]

A point charge 150 nC is located at (−4, 3, 5), a line 𝑦 = −2, 𝑧 = 3 carries charge 5 nC/m
while plane 𝑧 = 5 carries charge 250 pC/m2 . Calculate the total force experienced by a
point charge 5 μC located at the (1, 2, −3).

Question 2: [CLO3][PLO3][C6] [10]

During a design competition, a complete design of an electric device is required. To meet
the requirements, design a parallel-plate capacitor (the spacing between the plates and
characteristic of the material) in such a way to have 𝐸̅ = (5𝑎̂𝑥 − 1.67𝑎̂𝑦 + 6.67𝑎̂𝑧 ) V/m
1
and 𝑃̅ = (3𝑎̂𝑥 − 𝑎̂𝑦 + 4𝑎̂𝑧 ) nC/m2 with a potential difference of 25 mV across the
10𝜋
terminals of the capacitor. Consider the plates of the required capacitor are separated along
the x-axis.

Question 3: [CLO1][PLO1][C3] [10]

A current carrying conductor AB as a part of an electric circuit, carries a current 4 A as
shown in the attached figure. Calculate the magnetic field at origin due to the conductor
AB.

question # 03

Question 4: [CLO2][PLO2][C4] [15]

The interface 2𝑥 + 𝑦 = 8 between two media carries no current. If medium 1
(2𝑥 + 𝑦 ≤ 8 ) is nonmagnetic with 𝐻̅1 = −4𝑎̂𝑥 + 3𝑎̂𝑦 − 𝑎̂𝑧 A/m and medium 2
(2𝑥 + 𝑦 ≥ 8 ) is characterized with 𝜇 = 10𝜇0 , examine the energy densities and
magnetization in both the mediums.

Question 5: [CLO2][PLO2][C4] [15]

The magnetic circuit of the attached figure has a current of 25 A in the coil of 1800 turns.
Assume that all branches have the same cross-section area 4 cm2 and that the material of
the core is iron with 𝜇 = 1500𝜇0 . Examine the ℛ (reluctance), ℱ (magnetomotive force),
and 𝜓 (flux) for the core and the air gap.
