Suppose we want to verify the analogy between electrostatic and magnetostatic by an explicit experiment. Consider the motion of (i) electric dipole `vecp` in an electrostatic field `vecE` and (ii) magnetic dipole `vecM` in a magnetic field `vecB`. Write down a set of conditions on `vecE`, `vecB`, `vecp`, `vecM` so that the two motions are verified to be identical. (Assume identical initial conditions).

To verify the analogy between electrostatic and magnetostatic forces acting on electric and magnetic dipoles, we need to establish a set of conditions on the electric field \( \vec{E} \), magnetic field \( \vec{B} \), electric dipole moment \( \vec{p} \), and magnetic dipole moment \( \vec{M} \). Below is a step-by-step solution to derive these conditions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Torque on Dipoles**: - For an electric dipole \( \vec{p} \) in an electric field \( \vec{E} \), the torque \( \vec{\tau}_E \) is given by: \[ \vec{\tau}_E = \vec{p} \times \vec{E} ...

Two infinite sheets having charge densities sigma_1 and sigma_2 are placed in two perpendicular planes whose two-dimensional view is shown in figure. The charges are distributed uniformly on the sheets in electrostatic equilibrium condition. Four points are marked I, II, III and IV. The electric field intensities at these points are vecE_1, vecE_2, vecE_3, and vecE_4 , respectively. The correct expression for the electric field intensities is

Consider two concentric conducting spheres. The outer sphere is hollow and initially has a charge -7Q on it. The inner sphere is solid and has a charge +2Q on it. a. How much charge is on the outer surface and inner surface of the outer sphere. b. If a wire is connected between the inner and outer sphere, after electrostatic equilibrium is established how much total charge is on the outer sphere? How much charge is on the outer surface and inner surface of the outer sphere? Does the electric field at the surface of the inside sphere change when the wire is connected? c. We return to original condition in (a). We now connect the outer sphere to ground with a wire and then disconnect it. How much total charge will be on the outer sphere? How much charge will be on the inner surface and outer surface of the outer sphere?

The method of electrical images is used to solve the electrostatic problems, where charge distribution is not specified completely. The method consists of replacement of given charge distribution by a simplified charge distribution or a signal point charge or a number of point charges [rovided the original boundary conditions are still satisfied. For example consider a system consider a system containing a point charge q placed at a distance d of form an infinite conducting plane. The boundary conditions are : (i) Potential is zero at infinity (ii) Potential is zero at each point on the conducting plane If we replaced the conducting plane by a point charge (-q) placed at a distance 'd' opposite to conducting plane. The charge (-q) is called the electrical image. Now system consists of two charge +q an -q at seperation 2d . If charge +q moves to a distance 'y' from the boundary of conducting plane (now absent), the electrical image -q also moves to the same 'y' from the boundary of conducting plane, so that the new distance between +q and -q is 2y The force between point charge +q and earthed conducting plane is

A person wants to roll a solid non-conducting spherical ball of mass m and radius r on a surface whose coefficient of static friction is mu . He placed the ball on the surface wrapped with n turns of closely packed conducting coils of negligible mass at the diameter. By some arrangement he is able to pass a current i through the coils in anti-clockwise direction when viewed downwards from point P . A constant horizontal magnetic field vecB is present throughout the space along the positive x direction as shown in the figure. (Assume mu is large enough to help pure rolling motion and initially the plane of the coils is perpendicular to the y -axs) If current i is passed through the coil then
