But EAy is in �a y direction while EBy is in

While z components of EA and EB help each other as both are in a z direction.
EAz = � �E E E aBz A B z� "or sin 45
Similarly there are 4 more pairs of charges which will behave identically and their y
components are going to cancel while z components are going to add.

The line with x = – 3 constant and y = 4
constant is a line parallel to z axis as z can take

Solution : a) Let us obtain the surface area of the sphere bounded by the given
coordinates. The differential surface area normal to a r direction is r d d2 sin � � � . The flux
is directed radially outward along a r direction.

Total flux passing through the total surface area is,

The point charge is completely enclosed by the closed surface. According to Gauss's law,
the total flux passing through any closed surface is charge enclosed hence,

Solution : The charges are
shown in the Fig. 2.6.
Consider line charge along
x-axis. Any point Q on this
charge is (x, 0, 0). As the
charge is infinite along x

component in a x direction.

Solution : a) At r = 2 cm, it is inner side of inner sphere. It is seen that inside a
spherical shell with surface charge E and D = 0. Now r = 2 cm is inside of all three
spheres hence E D= = 0.
At r = 4 cm which is exterior to innermost sphere but inside of spheres having radii 5and 7 cm. Hence at r = 4 cm, D and E exist due to sphere of r = 3 cm with

Example 3.3.5
Solution : The line charge along the
z-axis and the circular path along which
charge is moving is shown in the
Fig. 3.1.
The circular path is in xy plane such that
its radius is r 1 and centered at the line
charge.
Consider cylindrical co-ordinate system
where line charge is along z-axis.
The charge is moving in a # direction.
� dL = r d# #aThe field E due to infinite line charge
along z axis is given in cylindrical
co-ordinates as,

Solution :
Note The paths are located at the points. Hence charge is moved through , L rather
than from one point to other. It is moved at a point in the direction , L through
distance , L. Hence the length is differential and work done will be also
differential. There is no need of integration.

Now V = 100 V at the origin O (0, 0, 0).
Let us obtain potential difference VPO using standard result.

Note Students can use the method of using consant C to find absolute potential of P due

answer remains same. For reference, the constant C C1 2 = 215.721 for both the line

Solution : The inner conductor which is at r1 = 0.03 m rotates at 500 r.p.m. Thus inner
conductor rotates with50060
revolutions per second. As in one second, the distance covered
is (2 r) meter, for the inner conductor the distance covered is50060
���
���(2 r) meters.
Then the linear velocity for inner conductor is given by
v1 = � �� �50060

Similarly for outer conductor, linear velocity is given by
v2 = � �� �50060

Here B is not varying with time, it is constant in a rdirection. Thus under such condition, the induced e.m.f. is
given by,

S = 2.4
First draw a circle with chart centre (1, 0) as centre of circle and 2.4 as radius. This is
S-circle with S = 2.4.
This circle cuts real axis on right hand side of the centre at a point whose co-ordinates are
(2.4, 0). This circle cuts at point A on left hand side of centre on the real axis. This point A
is the point of voltage minima. Co-ordinates of the point A are (0.42, 0).
The last minimum is 35 cm away from the load.
The total length is 204 cm.
Hence the load is35

So if we travel a distance 0.1716 � from the point A, we will get a point B which is
nothing but the load point. Note that we are moving from a voltage minima to load i.e.
from generator to load, hence move in counterclockwise direction.

Locate point A at intersection of r = 0.5 circle and X = + j 1 circle. This is a load
point.
2. With origin O as center. Draw a circle with radius equal to OA. This is constant S
circle. Extend line OA to point A' at periphery.
3. Constant S circle drawn in step 2, cuts horizontal axis at point P on the right hand
side. Through this point r = 4.2 circle passes, hence
S = VSWR = 4.24. Now with radius OA draw arc DE on the reflection coefficient line located at the
lower side of chart. This arc cuts line at F. At point F1 value of K can be obtained.
And it is
K = 0.63Now the angle correspond to point A' is 83º. This is the angle of reflection coefficient
is given by,
K = K � � = 0.63 � 83º5. Now from point �A , move distance 3.3 � in clockwise direction (load to generator) to
achieve input point. On the periphery we must complete 6 rotations to achieve 3 �distance and then travel 0.3 � distance to reach input point B'. Join point OB' which
intersects constant-S circle at point B. It is the intersects of r = 0.8 circle and
X = – 1.4 circle.
Thus normalized input impedance is
Zs = 0.8 – j 1.4
Hence actual input impedance is given by,
Zs = Z0 (Zs) = 50(0.8 – j 1.4) = (40 – j 70) �Refer Fig. 12.6 on next page

Locate point B at the intersection of S circle and unity conductance circle. Now this point
is nearest to the load, At B the susceptance is + 2.0 which is capacitive in nature. This
point gives the position at which the stub is to be connected.
Extending line through point A and B from the centre of the chart upto the outermost rim
of the chart, we get s = 0.062 � for point A and s = 0.188 � for point B. Travelling from
load to generator in clockwise direction, the distance from the load at which stub is to be
connected is given by,
s1 = [0.188 � – 0.062 �] = 0.126 �As the line susceptance is capacitive, the line must provide inductive susceptance of –
2.0. Locate point C at the intersection of – 2.0 susceptance circle with the outer rim of the
chart. Thus at C, S = 0.322 �. As the stub is short circuited at other end, measuring
distance from extreme right hand point on the real ra axis i.e. from short circuit point
(S = 0.25 �). Thus the length of the stub required is given by,
L = (0.322 � – 0.25 �] = 0.072 �For matching load of (50 – j 100) � with 50 � line, a short circuited stub must be located

Locate point B at the intersection of S circle and unity conductance circle. Now this point

Extending line through point A and B from the centre of the chart upto the outermost rim

s1 = [0.188 � – 0.062 �] = 0.126 �As the line susceptance is capacitive, the line must provide inductive susceptance of –

conductance. Hence following a constant conductance circle from point O locates point 1
where,Y

The stub1 must contribute a susceptance of ba = + j 0.224 = j 0.23; at 1, 1 on the line.
The [+ 0.23] constant susceptance circle cuts the rim of the chart at 0.036 � .

The stub1 at 1, 1 is shorted. Hence starting from extreme right hand end (short circuit) and
travelling in clockwise direction.
Length of the stub at 1, 1= L1= (0.5 – 0.25) � + 0.036 � = 0.286 �
The section of the line between points 1,1 and 2,2 changes the admittance at 1, 1 to that of
2, 2 along a constant circle with 0 as centre and 0-1 as radius.
The admittance at 2, 2 on the line without the stub can be read from chart at point 2 on
the circle A givingY
G2
0= 1 + j 0.68
Hence stub-2 should then be adjusted to provide an inductive susceptance of
ba = � 0.68 after which the admittance at 2, 2 will beY
G2
0= 1 + j 0 and the main line to
the left of terminal 2, 2 will be properly terminated.
The [– 0.68] circle cuts the outer rim at 0.404 � . Then the length of the stub2 is given by
L2 = 0.404 � – 0.25 � = 0.154
