Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 3

Electric field will be maximum outside the conductor and magnetic field will be maximum inside the conductor. State True/False. 

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 3

Answer: a
Explanation: At the conductor-free space boundary, electric field will be maximum and magnetic field will be minimum. This implies electric field is zero inside the conductor and increases as the radius increases and the magnetic field is zero outside the conductor and decreases as it approaches the conductor.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 4

Find the magnetic flux density of a finite length conductor of radius 12cm and current 3A in air( in 10-6 order)

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 4

Answer: b
Explanation: The magnetic field intensity is given by H = I/2πr, where I = 3A and r = 0.12. The magnetic flux density in air B = μ H, where μ = 4π x 10-7.Thus B = 4π x 10-7 x 3/2π x 0.12 = 5x 10-6 units.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 5

Calculate the magnetic field intensity due to a toroid of turns 50, current 2A and radius 159mm.

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 5

Answer: c
Explanation: The magnetic field intensity is given by H = NI/2πrm, where N = 50, I = 2A and rm = 1/2π. Thus H = 50 x 2/2π x 0.159 = 100 units.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 6

Find the magnetic field intensity due to an infinite sheet of current 5A and charge density of 12j units in the positive y direction and the z component is below the sheet.

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 6

Answer: c
Explanation: The magnetic intensity when the normal component is below the sheet is Hy = -0.5 K, where K = 12.Thus we get H = -0.5 x 12 = -6 units.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 7

Find the current density on the conductor surface when a magnetic field H = 3cos x i + zcos x j A/m, for z>0 and zero, otherwise is applied to a perfectly conducting surface in xy plane.

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 7

Answer: b
Explanation: By Ampere law, Curl (H) = J. The curl of H will be i(-cos x) – j(0) + k(-z sin x) = -cos x i – zsin x k. In the xy plane, z = 0. Thus Curl(H) = J = -cos x i.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 8

When the rotational path of the magnetic field intensity is zero, then the current in the path will be

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 8

Answer: b
Explanation: By Ampere law, Curl(H) = J. The rotational path of H is zero, implies the curl of H is zero. This shows the current density J is also zero. The current is the product of the current density and area, which is also zero.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 9

Find the magnetic field intensity when the current density is 0.5 units for an area up to 20 units.

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 9

Answer: a
Explanation: We know that ∫ H.dl = I. By Stoke’s law, we can write Curl(H) = J. In integral form, H = ∫ J.ds, where J = 0.5 and ds is defined by 20 units. Thus H = 0.5 x 20 = 10 units.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 10

The divergence of which quantity will be zero?

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 10

Answer: d
Explanation: The divergence of the magnetic flux density is always zero. This is because of the non existence of magnetic monopoles in a magnetic field.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 11

Find the charge density when the electric flux density is given by 2x i + 3y j + 4z k.

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 11

Answer: b
Explanation: The charge density is the divergence of the electric flux density by Maxwell’s equation. Thus ρ = Div (D) and Div (D) = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9. We get ρ = 9 units.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 12

Find the Maxwell equation derived from Faraday’s law.

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 12

Explanation: The electric flux density from Maxwell’s equation is given by D = ∫ ρ dv. On substituting ρ = 16 and ∫dv = 1, we get D = 16 units.

Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 20

If the distance between the two long straight wires is 5 cm, with each carrying a current of 15 A in the same direction, then find a magnetic field at P

Detailed Solution for Test: Ampere Law & Maxwell Law - Question 20

CONCEPT:

  • Ampere’s Law: Line integral of the magnetic field B around any closed curve is equal to μ0 times the net current I threading through the area enclosed by the curve i.e.
  • The intensity of the magnetic field due to wire of infinite length is

Where μ0 = permittivity of free space, I = current in a wire, d = distance

CALCULATION:
Given – I = 15 A, d1 = 10 cm =10 × 10-2 m and d2 = 5 cm = 5 × 10-2 m
The intensity of the magnetic at P field due to 1st wire is

The direction of B1 will be toward point P
The intensity of the magnetic at P field due to 2nd wire of infinite length is

The direction of B2 will be toward point P.
∴ The net magnetic field at point P will be the addition of the two, i.e.
Bnet = B2 + B1 = 6 × 10-5 + 3 ×10-5 9 × 10-5 T
