(a) Field intensity
(b) Field density
(c) Potential
(d) Charge and flux

10. The Gaussian surface is
(a) Real boundary
(b) Imaginary surface
(c) Tangential
(d) Normal

Answers
  1. (d) I = ∫(V(t)/L)dt = ∫12t2dt = 4t3
  2. (a) VB = 10 V. Apply KCL at node A gives VA = 10 V ⇒ I = 0
  3. (b) Current sources can not be connected in series unless identical because in series all individual current sources have same values.
  4. (c) x(s) = ω/(s2 + ω2); If s2 + ω2 = s2 + 9 then ω2 = 9 ⇒ ω = 3 rad/sec
  5. (b)
  6. (c)
  7. (d) According to Gauss law, the electric field inside a conducting sphere is always zero irrespective of how much charge resides on its surface. Due to zero electric field inside a sphere, the electric flux inside a sphere is zero.
  8. (d) Grad (xi + yj + zk) = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3. In other words, the gradient of any position vector is 3.
  9. (d)  Gauss law states that the electric flux passing through any closed surface is equal to the total charge enclosed by the surface. Thus, it is given by, ψ = ∫∫ D.ds= Q, where the divergence theorem computes the charge and flux, which are both the same.
  10. (b) It is any physical or imaginary closed surface around a charge which satisfies the following condition: D is everywhere either normal or tangential to the surface so that D.ds becomes either Dds or 0 respectively.
