Solve the following questions:

1. Determine the capacitance of:


(a) A 1-ft length of 35B/U coaxial cable which has an inner conductor 0.1045 in. in
diameter, a polyethylene dielectric (_r = 2.26 from Table C.1), and an outer conductor
that has an inner diameter of 0.680 in.
(b) A conducting sphere of radius 2.5 mm, covered with a polyethylene layer 2 mm thick,
surrounded by a conducting sphere of radius 4.5 mm.
(c) Two rectangular conducting plates, 1 cm by 4 cm, with negligible thickness, between
which are three sheets of dielectric, each 1 cm by 4cm, and 0.1mmthick, having dielectric
constants of 1.5, 2.5, and 6.

plate capacitor of plate area S, plate separation d, and potential difference V0
between plates.

4. A parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a non-uniform dielectric characterized by


ϵr = 2 + 2 × 106 x2, where x is the distance from one plate in meters. If S =
0.02m2 and d = 1 mm, find C.

(e) The equation of the streamline passing through P.
(f) Does V satisfy Laplace’s equation?

(b) The electric field at r = a;
(c) The total charge.

7. A current filament carrying 15 A in the az direction lies along the entire z-axis. Find
H in rectangular coordinates at: (a) P A (√20, 0, 4); (b) PB (2, −4, 4).
8. Calculate the value of the vector current density:

(c) In spherical coordinates at PC (2, 30◦, 20◦) if H = (1/sin θ) aθ.
