Spring 2022 Homework Assignments
A point charge Q is placed at the center of a sphere with radius R and permittivity ε, which leads to the polarization of the sphere. The sphere is now spun around an axis (which you can take as the z-direction). Find the magnetic field at all points in space.
Consider a metallic rectangular cavity with dimensions 1cm x 2cm x 3cm.
(a) What is the lowest frequency mode?
Find the following quantities in terms of the magnitude of the field in the z-direction
(corresponding to the largest dimension).
(b) All fields in the structure.
(c) The currents on the 6 surfaces.
(d) The energy stored in the geometry.
(e) The energy loss (and hence the Q of the cavity) if
o the cavity is made of copper
o the cavity is made of silver
