PHYS 33 2 0 Exam #1, Fall 2023 _Your NAME ____________________________

Exam period: 7:30 to 9:00 pm

If you need more space to write, use the back of the pages (or staple extra pages to

the exam). Just BE SURE TO INDICATE CLEARLY that your work is continued,

(and where) if you need more room than the problem page itself.

On my honor, as a University of Colorado at Boulder student, I

have neither given nor received unauthorized assistance on this

work.

1 ) ( 25 points) Consider the `slide rail' shown in

the figure below. You pull the bar that slides

frictionlessly on the u-shaped circuit with

resistance R. The length of the rail is l. A

uniform magnetic field B

points into the page

and fills all space.

(a) ( 9 pts) What is the current in the resistor? What direction does the current flow?

(b) ( 9 pts) What is the external force that is needed to maintain a constant velocity for the

bar? What is the power that this external force provides to move the bar?

c) (7 pts) What is the power consumed by the resistor? How does this power compare with

that in b)?

  1. (20 pts) Two infinitely long coaxial metal cylindrical shells

of radius a and b ( b > a ), respectively, are separated by weakly

conducting material of conductivity . The electric potential at

the inner and outer cylinders is fixed as V a

and V b

, respectively

with Δ𝑉 = 𝑉 𝑎

𝑏

as the potential difference and  V > 0_._

Assume that the current is steady.

(a) ( 8 pts) Solve for the electric potential V ( s ) between the shells (i.e., for 𝑎 ≤ 𝑠 ≤ 𝑏) by

solving Laplace's equation in cylindrical coordinates by direct integration.

(b) ( 3 pts) Find the electric field within the conductor (direction and magnitude).

(c) ( 8 pts) Loop 3 which is the same as in part b), is located outside the solenoid, but its center is a

distance d from the central axis of the solenoid ( bd ). The normal of the loop is parallel to the

solenoid axis. What is the electromotive force generated around the loop? What is the direction of

the induced current (clockwise or counterclockwise viewed from above z axis)? What is the electric

field 𝐸

(both the magnitude and direction) at the point on the loop that is closest to the central axis of

the solenoid (i.e., at a distance of d-b from the central axis)?
