Homework 9 Ch22: Q 1; P 1, 3, 19; Ch24: P 57, 59, 61 Question (Ch22): 1. The electric field in an EM wave traveling north oscillates in an east–west plane. Describe the direction of the magnetic field vector in this wave. Solution If the direction of travel for the EM wave is north and the electric field oscillates eastwest, then the magnetic field must oscillate up and down. For an EM wave, the direction of travel, the electric field, and the magnetic field must all be perpendicular to each other. Problems (Ch22): *1. (II) At a given instant, a 1.8-A current flows in the wires connected to a parallelplate capacitor. What is the rate at which the electric field is changing between the plates if the square plates are 1.60 cm on a side? Solution The current in the wires must also be the displacement current in the capacitor. We find the rate at which the electric field is changing from equation: ID 0 E t ID 0 A E t E 1.8 A t 8.85 10 12 F / m 1.60 10 2 m2 3.

Solution The electric field is E cB 3.00 108 m s 17.5 109 T 5.25V m. *19. (II) The magnetic field in a traveling EM wave has an rms strength of 28.5 nT. How long does it take to deliver 235 J of energy to 1.00 cm2 of a wall that it hits perpendicularly? Solution The intensity (the average energy per unit area per unit time) is I cBrms 2 0 3.00 10 m s 28.5 10 T 4 10 T m A 9 8 7 We find the time using definition of intensity: I t 2 0.194 W m 2 .

(II) At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to (a) 13 , (b) 101 ? Solution If the initial intensity is I 0 , through the two sheets we have I1 12 I 0 , I 2 I1 cos2 ; which means I2 1 cos2 . I0 2 (a) For I2 1 , I0 3 1 3 (b) For I2 1 , I 0 10 1 10 12 cos 2 gives 35.3. 12 cos2 gives 63.4. 59. (II) Two polarizers are oriented at 38.0° to one another. Light polarized at a 19.0° angle to each polarizer passes through both. What percent reduction in intensity takes place? Solution Through the successive sheets we have I1 I 0 cos2 1 , I 2 I1 cos2 2 , which gives I 2 I 0 cos2 1 cos2 2 I 0 cos2 19.0 cos2 38.0 0.555I 0 . Thus the reduction is 44.5%. 61. (II) Unpolarized light passes through five successive ideal polarizers, each of whose axis makes a 45° angle with the previous one. What fraction of the light intensity is transmitted?
