Problem 3: Consider the following piston cylinder assembly where the piston is resting on some stops.The spring is undeformed initially which just touches the piston. From this point, a net pressure acts on the piston exerted by the inside air and its magnitude is 193.7 kPa. This makes the piston to rise above the stops compressing the spring by 50 mm. Calculate the total work done by the air. Hint: Add the work done by the air and the spring work.Ans: 804J

Problem 4.19 Suppose you have enough linear dielectric material, of dielectric constant e,, to half-fill a parallel-plate capacitor (Fig. 4.25). By what fraction is the capacitance increased when you distribute the material as in Fig. 4.25(a)? Howa bout Fig. 4.25(b)?

Problem 6.12 An infinitely long cylinder, of radius R, carries a "frozen-in" magnetization, parallel to the axis, M = ks î, where k is a constant and s is the distance from the axis; there is no free current anywhere. Find the magnetic field inside and outside the cylinder by two different methods: (a) As in Sect. 6.2, locate all the bound currents, and calculate the field they produce. (b) Use Ampère's law (in the form of Eq. 6.20) to find H, and then get B from Eq. 6.18. (Notice that the second method is much faster, and avoids any explicit reference to the bound currents.)

Problem 2.25 Using Eqs. 2.27 and 2.30, find the potential at a distance z above the center of the charge distributions in Fig. 2.34. In each case, compute E =-V, and compare your answers with Ex. 2.1, Ex. 2.2, and Prob. 2.6, respectively. Suppose that we changed the right-hand charge in Fig. 2.34a to -q; what then is the potential at P? What field does that suggest? Compare your answer to Prob. 2.2, and explain carefully any discrepancy.

7.42 A team of scientists is designing a radar as a probe for measuring the depth of the ice layer over the antarctic land mass. In order to measure a detectable echo due to the reflection by the ice-rock boundary, the thickness of the ice sheet should not exceed three skin depths. If & = 3 andE" = 10-2 for ice and if the maximum anticipated ice thickness in the area under exploration is 1.2 km, what frequency range is use able with the radar?
