Practice Problems on Electrodynamics

JEE Mains 2025


January 2025

Differential elements
Write down the differential charge (dq) and current (dI) elements for a uniform rod, disc and sphere. To find the
differential current element, assume the body of charge is rotated about the center of symmetry with an angular
speed ω.

Conductor vs Dielectric
Sketch the variation of electric field for a solid sphere in a conductor and dielectric. What is the difference? What
do you understand about the distribution of charge?

Brute Force vs Gauss Law


Obtain the electric field due to an infinitely long thin wire at a distance r from its axis using the elemental approach
(Problem 1) and Gauss Law.
Now, using the more straightforward method obtain the field due to a uniform sphere at a point inside and outside
the sphere and plot the field.

Biot Savart Law vs Amperes Law


Obtain the magnetic field due to an infinitely long thin wire at a distance r from its axis using Biot Savart Law
and Amperes Law.
Now, using the more straightforward method obtain the field due to a solenoid at a point inside and outside the
solenoid and plot the field.

Dipole Moment
Obtain the electric field due to an electric dipole p⃗ situated at the origin at axial and equatorial points. Clearly
show the diagram.

Gyromagnetic Ratio
The ratio of the magnetic moment to the angular momentum is termed the gyromagnetic ratio and is independent
of the geometry.
M q
Gyromagnetic ratio = =
L 2m
⃗ of a uniform sphere rotating with an angular speed ω
Use this result to find the magnetic moment M ⃗.
(Optional) Prove this!

Potential Function
Using the electric field expression derived for a solid sphere in Problem 2, obtain the potential function.
Hint :
⃗ = −∇V
E ⃗

1
Electromagnetic Induction
The magnetic flux is simply defined as the dot product of the magnetic field and the area as given below

⃗ A
Φ = B. ⃗

Nature tries to resist any change produced to its natural state. An electromotive force (EMF) is induced in a closed
loop to counter changes in magnetic flux, that is
dΦ
ε=−
dt
To find the direction of EMF, simply use the above definition. Current is produced in a direction to ensure the
same flux is maintained.
Consider the following situation,

Assume that the magnetic field coming out of the plane of the paper constant and the right end of the loop
starts moving to the right with a velocity ⃗v to the right at t = 0 as shown in the figure above.
(a) Verify if the direction of current in the loop is CORRECT

(b) Determine the force on the right end of the loop. Use first principles of magnetic force (F⃗ = I L
⃗ × B)
⃗ to
determine the direction of force and its magnitude.
Comment on whether the result makes intuitive sense.

(c) Using the force derived in (b) above, determine the displacement of the right end x(t) as a function of time.

Inductance
Inductance is a measure of a wires reluctance to variation in current. For a coil of N turns, inductance is formally
defined as

LI = N Φ
Determine the self-inductance of a solenoid and toroid from first principles.

Kirchoff Laws
Use Kirchoff’s Laws (both separately) to solve for the network shown below and obtain the currents i1 , i2 and i3 .

2
Electrical Oscillations
Prove that an LC circuit exhibits oscillations without damping using the energy method.

AC Circuit Analysis
To solve any AC circuit replace an inductor and capacitor with a resistance of equivalent magnitude at a particular
frequency and treat them as simple resistors, i.e do the following

R←R

L ← jωL
1
C←
jωC
Now, take the simple LCR circuit shown below. The voltage across the capacitor is Vout .

Plot Vout as a function of ω. Note that the output is high for low frequencies and low for high frequencies. This
response is termed a typical low pass response.
