ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS ( Common to Electrical & Electronics Engineering and Electronics & Control Engineering) Time: 3 hours Max Marks: 80 Answer any FIVE Questions All Questions carry equal marks

1. (a) State and explain Coulombs law for the vector force between two point charges in free space. (b) A straight line of length m in free space has a uniform charge density of C/m. P is a point on the perpendicular bisector of the line charge, at a distance y m from the line. Find the electric eld at P. (c) Find the electric eld at P if the line charge length extends to innity. [6+8+2]

2. (a) A conducting body is in the electric eld of static charges. Explain why the net electric eld at any point inside the conducting body will be zero. (b) Use the result of (a) to show that i. the net volume charge density at any point inside the conductor is zero, and ii. the conductor is an equipotential body. [8+4+4] 3. (a) Dene polarization. Explain how a dielectric acquires polarization. (b) A long straight line of uniform charge density C/m is surrounded by an insulating medium out to a radius R m. Find D. Also nd the electric eld in the region outside the insulation. Explain why the electric eld cannot be found in the insulation region. [8+8] 4. (a) State Biot - Savarts law for the magnetic eld B due to a steady line current element in free space. Hence obtain the magnetic eld due to a steady volume current conguration. (b) For the current elements located in free space as shown in gure 4b, nd the magnetic eld B at the point P. [6+10]
