Date: 27/09/2023 Tutorial-7 Section: _________

Q1) Given a vector field 𝐴⃗ = 10 sinθ aθ . Check if 𝐴⃗ can be expressed as the gradient of a
scalar field.
Q2) Given an electrostatic potential distribution V=20x2yz10z2 V in free-space. Assume the range
of interest is restricted to 0 V ≤ V ≤ 60 V. (a) Determine the equipotential surfaces corresponding
to V=0 V and V=60 V (b) Assuming these surfaced are perfectly conducting, find the surface
charge density at (x, z)=(2,1) on the 60 V surface. (c) Find the unit normal at (2,1) for the 60 V
surface directed towards the 0 V surface.
Q3) P2.30 TB
