Somewhere in space a magnetic field is changing with time, there are no other sources of electric field field anywhere. In this case, can we define a potential difference betwee two points? 1. Yes, we can always do this 2. Yes, but only if we define the specific path as well 3. No, the story is more complicated than A or B. 4. No, whenever $\nabla \times E \neq 0$, the concept of potential breaks down 5. More than one of these Note: * Correct Answer: E

A long solenoid of cross sectional area, $A$, length, $l$, and number of turns, $N$, carrying current, $I$, creates a magnetic field, $B$, that is spatially uniform inside and zero outside the solenoid. It is given by: <img src="./images/B_solenoid.png" align="center" style="width: 700px";/> 1. $B = \mu_0 {N^2}/{l}$ 2. $B = \mu_0 ({N^2}/{l})I$ 3. $B = \mu_0 ({N}/{l})I$ 4. $B = \mu_0 ({N^2}/{l})AI$ Note: * Correct Answer: C
A long solenoid of cross sectional area, $A$, length, $l$, and number of turns, $N$, carrying current, $I$, creates a magnetic field, $B$, that is spatially uniform inside and zero outside the solenoid. The self inductance is: <img src="./images/B_solenoid_2.png" align="center" style="width: 700px";/> 1. $L=\mu_0{N^2}/{(IA)}$ 2. $L=\mu_0({N}/{l})A$ 3. $L=\mu_0({N^2}/{l^2})A$ 4. $L=\mu_0({N^2}/{l})A$ Note: * Correct Answer: D
