Answer PaperPaper Code: 135APMaximum Marks: 75Time: 3 Hours

Part A is compulsory (25 marks). In Part B, answer any one question from each unit (50 marks). Each question in Part B carries 10 marks.

Part A

125 marks
a

State Divergence theorem.

2 marks

Answer

The divergence theorem states that the outward flux of a vector field A through a closed surface S is equal to the volume integral of the divergence of A over the volume V enclosed by the surface:

∮S A · dS = ∫V (∇ · A) dV
b

Mention the differences between scalar and vector magnetic potentials.

3 marks

Answer

Scalar magnetic potential (Vm) is defined for current-free regions (J=0) where H = -∇Vm, whereas vector magnetic potential (A) is defined for any region where B = ∇ × A. Scalar potential is a single-valued function only in simply connected regions, while vector potential is universally applicable and satisfies the Poisson equation.
