Q1) Calculate the work done in an electric field E = y ax + x ay, in moving a charge of - 2C
from P (2,1,-1) to Q(8,2,-1) along a path defined by (i) Parabola x = 2y 2 and (ii) straight
line joining P and Q.

Q2) Consider two lossless dielectric regions separated by a plane at z = 0. Relative

permittivity of region 1 and region 2 are 2 and 3 respectively. Electric field intensity in
region 1 is E1 = 2y ax 3x ay + (5+z) az. Determine E2 and D2 for region 2.

Q3) A perfect dielectric with permittivity 1 in region 1 is defined by x < a . Region 2 is free
space defined by x > a. The electric field intensities in region 1 and 2 are E1 and E2
respectively given by

E1 = E10 [Cos ax sin ay]

E2 = E20 [(1 + a/2x) Cos ax (1 a/4x) sin ay]

Applying the boundary conditions determine the value of 1.

Q4) If H = y ax - x ay A/m on plane z = 0, (i) Determine the current density (ii) Verify the
amperes law by taking the circulation of H around the edges of the rectangle z = 0, 0 <
