Physics 4B Exam 2, March 18, 2004, Exams of Physics

An old physics exam from university of california, berkeley's physics 4b course. It includes instructions for the exam, a list of equations and constants from chapters 26, 27, and 28, multiple choice and short answer questions, and problems to be solved. The exam covers topics such as capacitance, energy storage in capacitors, drift velocity of electrons, and ohm's law.

Multiple choice and short answer questions (4 points each, unless noted)

The figure below shows four parallel plate capacitors: A, B, C, and D. Each capacitor carries the same charge q and has the same plate area A. As suggested by the figure, the plates of capacitors A and C are separated by a distance d while a distance 2d separates those of B and D. Capacitors A and B are maintained in vacuum while capacitors C and D contain dielectrics with constant k = 4.
