 6.013 Quiz 1 Solutions, 10/20/2005
Problem 1
a) Apply Integral form of Amperes Law:
2 r
J0r 2
2 rH = J z (r )rdrd H = i
=0 r =0 3R 1

b) The total current going up the inside conductor must return going down in the
outside conductor:
J R2
2 J z ( r )rdr = 2 R2 K K = 0 1 i z
R1

r =0 3R2
Problem 1 Alternate Method:
R1 < r < R2
2 R1
J 0r J 0 R12
2 rH = rdrd H =
=0 r =0 R1 3r
J 0 R12
K z = H ( r = R2 ) =
3R2
Problem 2
a) The boundary conditions at = 0 and = determine the unknowns A and B
( = 0) = 0 B = 0
V0
( = ) = V0 A =

b) The electric field is the negative gradient of the potential. Problem is best done
in cylindrical coordinates:
1 ( ) V
E = = i = 0 i
r r
c) Use the boundary condition on the normal D field at the upper perfect conductor:
V0
sf = i i[ 0 E( = + ) E( = )] =
r
d) Since C=Q/V0 and the total charge is given by
R2 d R d R2
Q = d sf (r )dr = V0 ln 2 C = ln
r = R1 1
R R1
Problem 3

a) By inspection = 2 f = 2 10 f = 10 Hz
8 8

2
b) By inspection k = k x 2 + k z 2 = 1 + 3 = 2 = = 1m
k
c) c = f = 110 m/s
8

kx 1
d) From trigonometry k x = , k z = 3, tan( i ) = = i = radians,
kz 3 6
equal to 30 degrees.
