LIST OF EXPERIMENTS:
1. In the two-dimensional electrostatic boundary-value problem, consider the
configuration of conductors and potentials shown in Fig. 1. Derive an
expression for the voltage at any point (x, y) inside the conductors. Write a
MATLAB program that plots the contours of the voltage and the lines of the
electric field.

2. A current sheet K = 5.0 ay A/m flows in the region −0.15 m < x < −0.15 m
(Fig.2). Compute H at P (0, 0, 0.25). Write a MATLAB program to verify your
answer and plot the magnetic field in the x-y plane in the region −0.5m ≤ x ≤
0.5m and −0.5m ≤ z ≤ 0.5m.
