1. Electric flux density vector D in a free space region is given by the following equation:
2𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃
𝐃= 𝒂𝑟𝑠 + 𝒂𝜃 , where 𝒂𝑟𝑠 , 𝒂𝜃 are unit vectors along rs, θ direction (in spherical coordinate).
𝑟𝑠3 𝑟𝑠3
The region is defined by a range of spherical coordinate values given below:
1 ≤ rs ≤ 2, 0 ≤ θ ≤ π/2, 0 ≤ Φ ≤ π/2
Find:
a/ The total electric flux going outwardly through all surfaces enclosing the region above (1 p.)
b/ The potential difference between A(1, 0, 0) and B(2, π/4, π/2) (1 p.)

2. An annular ring (Fig.1) located in the z = 0 plane and centered at the origin has the following charge distribution:

Find:
a/ The electric potential V(z) at P (0, 0, z) (1 p.)
b/ The electric field intensity vector E at P’(0, 0, 1) (1 p.)

3. A stationary loop of wire lies in the xy plane (Fig. 2) that contains a spatially non-uniform time-varying magnetic
𝜋𝑟
flux density vector B(rc,t)= azBocos( 2𝑏𝑐 ) cos 2𝜋𝑓𝑡 , where:

az: unit vector along the z-axis,

Bo: amplitude of the magnetic flux density, Bo= 2 (T)
rc: distance of a point to the coordinate origin O (in cylindrical coordinate)
b: radius of the loop, b= 0.5 (m)
f: frequency of the time-varying magnetic field, f = 50 (Hz)
t: time (s)
The center of the loop is at the point of rc=0.

Find the induced voltage V(t) that could be detected between the loop two terminals (separated by an infinitesimal
gap) (2 p.).

4. A ferromagnetic circuit is shown in Fig. 3, where N1, N2 are the numbers of turns of the 2 windings 1 and 2,
respectively on the left and right leg, with the current directions I1 and I2 as shown.
The mean lengths between the intersection points are given by L1, L2, L3 in the figure. The iron core has a uniform
cross-sectional area of A and a relative magnetic permeability µr (free space magnetic permeability= µo).
Calculate, in terms of the above given parameters:
a/ the flux Φ1, Φ2 on the left and right leg (1 p.)
b/ the flux Φ in the center leg (1 p.)

5. A current I flows through a rectangular loop of wire in the

direction shown with arrows in Fig. 4. The dimensions of the
rectangle are a and b as shown. A uniform magnetic flux density
vector B is in a direction perpendicular to the paper (it’s
coming toward you), as shown.
a/ Draw the force vector on each (upper, lower, left and right)
segment of the wire, and calculate its magnitude? (1 p.)
b/ What is the torque on the rectangular loop? (1 p.)
