    HOMEWORK 11
    (December 26, 2012)
    Due on Thursday, January 17, 2013
    PROBLEM 31 (H.C. Ohanian 9.17)
    A pair of Helmholtz coils are often used in laboratories to produce fairly uniform
    magnetic elds. The coils consist of two rings of radius R on a common axis separated
    by a distance R. The rings carry equal currents I in the same direction. Suppose
    that the coils are parallel to the x-y plane and that their centers are at z =R/2.
    (a) Find the magnetic eld B
    z
    on the z-axis.
    (b) Show that at z =0, the rst, second, and third derivatives vanish (i.e., d
    n
    B
    z
    /dz
    n
    =
    0 for n=1, 2, 3). Show, however, that the fourth derivative d
    4
    B
    z
    /dz
    4
    does not
    vanish and provide its value.
    PROBLEM 32
    Consider (as we did in class) a sphere of radius a with a constant uniform magneti-
    zation M(r)=M
    0
    z.
    (a) Show that there exists a scalar potential
    M
    (r) such that
    H(r) =
    M
    (r) .
    (b) Show that
    M
    satises Laplaces equation inside and outside the sphere.
    (c) Determine the two boundary conditions satised by
    M
    .
    (d) Using the results obtained above, solve for
    M
    inside and outside the sphere and
    show that your results are identical to those obtained in class.
    PROBLEM 33
    Consider an elementary magnetic dipole m= m z that is located at the center of a
    sphere of radius a that is lled with a uniform and isotropic material of permeability .
    (a) Show that the magnetic eld H may be written as the gradient of a magnetic
    scalar potential
    M
    (r).
    (b) Find the magnetic elds B and H inside and outside the sphere.
    (c) Compute the magnetization current induced at the surface of the sphere.
