This character walks because they cannot afford a horse.  

10 Points In the diagram, there is a magnetic field in the +x direction with B = 0.20 T.  The loop has an area of 5.0 cm2 and rotates about the line CD as an axis.  Point A rotates toward positive x values from the position shown.  If line AE rotates through 50° from its indicated position in a time of 0.20 s. What is the change in flux through the coil? What is the average induced emf in it? Does the induced current flow from A to C or C to A in the upper part of the coil?  

10 Points A metal rod makes contact with a partial circuit and completes the circuit.  The circuit area is perpendicular to a magnetic field with B = 0.15 T.  If the resistance of the total circuit is 3 Ω, how large a force is needed to move the rod as indicated with a constant speed of 2 m/s?  

10 Points The diagram shows a parallel plate capacitor of plate area 10.5 cm2 and plate separate 2d = 7.12 mm.  The left half of the gap is filled with material of dielectric constant K1 = 21.0; the top of the right half is filled with a material of dielectric constant K2 = 42.0; the bottom of the right half is filled with a material of dielectric constant K3 = 58.0.  What is the capacitance?  

10 Points The wire shown in the diagram carries a current of 40 A.  Find the magnetic field at point P (magnitude and direction).

10 Points Consider the circuit shown below. Find V1, I2, and I3  

10 Points A beam of electrons passes undeflected through two mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields.  If the electric field is cut off and the same magnetic field is maintained, the electrons move in the magnetic field in a circular path of radius 1.14 cm.  Determine the ratio of the electronic charge to mass if E = 8 kV/m and the magnetic field has a flux density 2 x 10-3 T.

10 Points The diagram shows the cross section of a long metal rod of radius R = 30 mm.  The rod carries a current I = 5 kA direction out of the paper.  Find B at point P (r = 20 mm) and at the surface of the rod, assuming the permeability of the metal may be approximated as μo.  

10 Points The capacitance of an air filled parallel plate capacitor is 2.5μF. When it is half filled with a dielectric as shown in the figure, its capacitance becomes 5μF.  Determine the dielectric constant of the material.  

15 Points Two straight conducting rails form a right angle.  A conducting bar in contact with the rails starts at the vertex at t = 0 and moves with a constant velocity v = 5.2 m/s along them.  A magnetic field with B = 0.35 T is directed out of the page.  Calculate: the flux through the triangle formed by the rail at t = 3.0 s the emf around the triangle at that time. The direction of the current flow (Clockwise / Counterclockwise)
