  • Chapter 3 Dynamics of the Electromagnetic Fields
    Chapter 3 Dynamics of the Electromagnetic Fields 3.1 Maxwell Displacement Current In the early 1860s (during the American civil war!) electricity including induction was well established experimentally. A big row was going on about theory. The warring camps were divided into the • Action-at-a-distance advocates and the • Field-theory advocates. James Clerk Maxwell was firmly in the field-theory camp. He invented mechanical analogies for the behavior of the fields locally in space and how the electric and magnetic influences were carried through space by invisible circulating cogs. Being a consumate mathematician he also formulated differential equations to describe the fields. In modern notation, they would (in 1860) have read: ρ �.E = Coulomb’s Law �0 ∂B � ∧ E = − Faraday’s Law (3.1) ∂t �.B = 0 � ∧ B = µ0j Ampere’s Law. (Quasi-static) Maxwell’s stroke of genius was to realize that this set of equations is inconsistent with charge conservation. In particular it is the quasi-static form of Ampere’s law that has a problem. Taking its divergence µ0�.j = �. (� ∧ B) = 0 (3.2) (because divergence of a curl is zero). This is fine for a static situation, but can’t work for a time-varying one. Conservation of charge in time-dependent case is ∂ρ �.j = − not zero. (3.3) ∂t 55 The problem can be fixed by adding an extra term to Ampere’s law because � � ∂ρ ∂ ∂E �.j + = �.j + �0�.E = �. j + �0 (3.4) ∂t ∂t ∂t Therefore Ampere’s law is consistent with charge conservation only if it is really to be written with the quantity (j + �0∂E/∂t) replacing j.

  • Lecture 5: Displacement Current and Ampère's Law
    Whites, EE 382 Lecture 5 Page 1 of 8 Lecture 5: Displacement Current and Ampère’s Law. One more addition needs to be made to the governing equations of electromagnetics before we are finished. Specifically, we need to clean up a glaring inconsistency. From Ampère’s law in magnetostatics, we learned that H J (1) Taking the divergence of this equation gives 0 H J That is, J 0 (2) However, as is shown in Section 5.8 of the text (“Continuity Equation and Relaxation Time), the continuity equation (conservation of charge) requires that J (3) t We can see that (2) and (3) agree only when there is no time variation or no free charge density. This makes sense since (2) was derived only for magnetostatic fields in Ch. 7. Ampère’s law in (1) is only valid for static fields and, consequently, it violates the conservation of charge principle if we try to directly use it for time varying fields. © 2017 Keith W. Whites Whites, EE 382 Lecture 5 Page 2 of 8 Ampère’s Law for Dynamic Fields Well, what is the correct form of Ampère’s law for dynamic (time varying) fields? Enter James Clerk Maxwell (ca. 1865) – The Father of Classical Electromagnetism. He combined the results of Coulomb’s, Ampère’s, and Faraday’s laws and added a new term to Ampère’s law to form the set of fundamental equations of classical EM called Maxwell’s equations. It is this addition to Ampère’s law that brings it into congruence with the conservation of charge law.

  • This Chapter Deals with Conservation of Energy, Momentum and Angular Momentum in Electromagnetic Systems
    This chapter deals with conservation of energy, momentum and angular momentum in electromagnetic systems. The basic idea is to use Maxwell’s Eqn. to write the charge and currents entirely in terms of the E and B-fields. For example, the current density can be written in terms of the curl of B and the Maxwell Displacement current or the rate of change of the E-field. We could then write the power density which is E dot J entirely in terms of fields and their time derivatives. We begin with a discussion of Poynting’s Theorem which describes the flow of power out of an electromagnetic system using this approach. We turn next to a discussion of the Maxwell stress tensor which is an elegant way of computing electromagnetic forces. For example, we write the charge density which is part of the electrostatic force density (rho times E) in terms of the divergence of the E-field. The magnetic forces involve current densities which can be written as the fields as just described to complete the electromagnetic force description. Since the force is the rate of change of momentum, the Maxwell stress tensor naturally leads to a discussion of electromagnetic momentum density which is similar in spirit to our previous discussion of electromagnetic energy density. In particular, we find that electromagnetic fields contain an angular momentum which accounts for the angular momentum achieved by charge distributions due to the EMF from collapsing magnetic fields according to Faraday’s law. This clears up a mystery from Physics 435. We will frequently re-visit this chapter since it develops many of our crucial tools we need in electrodynamics.

  • Section 2: Maxwell Equations
    Section 2: Maxwell’s equations Electromotive force We start the discussion of time-dependent magnetic and electric fields by introducing the concept of the electromotive force . Consider a typical electric circuit. There are two forces involved in driving current around a circuit: the source, fs , which is ordinarily confined to one portion of the loop (a battery, say), and the electrostatic force, E, which serves to smooth out the flow and communicate the influence of the source to distant parts of the circuit. Therefore, the total force per unit charge is a circuit is = + f fs E . (2.1) The physical agency responsible for fs , can be any one of many different things: in a battery it’s a chemical force; in a piezoelectric crystal mechanical pressure is converted into an electrical impulse; in a thermocouple it’s a temperature gradient that does the job; in a photoelectric cell it’s light. Whatever the mechanism, its net effect is determined by the line integral of f around the circuit: E =fl ⋅=d f ⋅ d l ∫ ∫ s . (2.2) The latter equality is because ∫ E⋅d l = 0 for electrostatic fields, and it doesn’t matter whether you use f E or fs . The quantity is called the electromotive force , or emf , of the circuit. It’s a lousy term, since this is not a force at all – it’s the integral of a force per unit charge. Within an ideal source of emf (a resistanceless battery, for instance), the net force on the charges is zero, so E = – fs. The potential difference between the terminals ( a and b) is therefore b b ∆Φ=− ⋅ = ⋅ = ⋅ = E ∫Eld ∫ fs d l ∫ f s d l .

  • Electric Flux Density, Gauss's Law, and Divergence
    www.getmyuni.com CHAPTER3 ELECTRIC FLUX DENSITY, GAUSS'S LAW, AND DIVERGENCE After drawinga few of the fields described in the previous chapter and becoming familiar with the concept of the streamlines which show the direction of the force on a test charge at every point, it is difficult to avoid giving these lines a physical significance and thinking of them as flux lines. No physical particle is projected radially outward from the point charge, and there are no steel tentacles reaching out to attract or repel an unwary test charge, but as soon as the streamlines are drawn on paper there seems to be a picture showing``something''is present. It is very helpful to invent an electric flux which streams away symmetri- cally from a point charge and is coincident with the streamlines and to visualize this flux wherever an electric field is present. This chapter introduces and uses the concept of electric flux and electric flux density to solve again several of the problems presented in the last chapter. The work here turns out to be much easier, and this is due to the extremely symmetrical problems which we are solving. www.getmyuni.com 3.1 ELECTRIC FLUX DENSITY About 1837 the Director of the Royal Society in London, Michael Faraday, became very interested in static electric fields and the effect of various insulating materials on these fields. This problem had been botheringhim duringthe past ten years when he was experimentingin his now famous work on induced elec- tromotive force, which we shall discuss in Chap. 10.

At the end of that course, you will have seen the full set of Maxwell's equations, which in vacuum are ρ @B~ r~ · E~ = r~ × E~ = − 0 @t @E~ r~ · B~ = 0 r~ × B~ = µ J~ + µ (1.1) 0 0 0 @t with @ρ r~ · J~ = − : (1.2) @t In this course, we will investigate the implications and applications of these results. We will cover • electromagnetic waves • energy and momentum of electromagnetic fields • electromagnetism and relativity • electromagnetic waves in materials and plasmas • waveguides and transmission lines • electromagnetic radiation from accelerated charges • numerical methods for solving problems in electromagnetism By the end of the course, you will be able to calculate the properties of electromagnetic waves in a range of materials, calculate the radiation from arrangements of accelerating charges, and have a greater appreciation of the theory of electromagnetism and its relation to special relativity. The spirit of the course is well-summed up by the \intermission" in Griffith’s book. After working from statics to dynamics in the first seven chapters of the book, developing the full set of Maxwell's equations, Griffiths comments (I paraphrase) that the full power of electromagnetism now lies at your fingertips, and the fun is only just beginning. It is a disappointing ending to PHYS 350, but an exciting place to start PHYS 352! { 2 { Why study electromagnetism? One reason is that it is a fundamental part of physics (one of the four forces), but it is also ubiquitous in everyday life, technology, and in natural phenomena in geophysics, astrophysics or biophysics.

  • Displacement Current and Ampère's Circuital Law Ivan S
    ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING Displacement current and Ampère's circuital law Ivan S. Bozev, Radoslav B. Borisov The existing literature about displacement current, although it is clearly defined, there are not enough publications clarifying its nature. Usually it is assumed that the electrical current is three types: conduction current, convection current and displacement current. In the first two cases we have directed movement of electrical charges, while in the third case we have time varying electric field. Most often for the displacement current is talking in capacitors. Taking account that charge carriers (electrons and charged particles occupy the negligible space in the surrounding them space, they can be regarded only as exciters of the displacement current that current fills all space and is superposition of the currents of the individual moving charges. For this purpose in the article analyzes the current configuration of lines in space around a moving charge. An analysis of the relationship between the excited magnetic field around the charge and the displacement current is made. It is shown excited magnetic flux density and excited the displacement current are linked by Ampere’s circuital law. ъ а аа я аъ а ъя (Ива . Бв, аав Б. Бв.)

    PHYS 110B - HW #4 Fall 2005, Solutions by David Pace Equations referenced as ”EQ. #” are from Griffiths Problem statements are paraphrased [1.] Problem 8.2 from Griffiths Reference problem 7.31 (figure 7.43). (a) Let the charge on the ends of the wire be zero at t = 0. Find the electric and magnetic fields in the gap, E~ (s, t) and B~ (s, t). (b) Find the energy density and Poynting vector in the gap. Verify equation 8.14. (c) Solve for the total energy in the gap; it will be time-dependent. Find the total power flowing into the gap by integrating the Poynting vector over the relevant surface. Verify that the input power is equivalent to the rate of increasing energy in the gap. (Griffiths Hint: This verification amounts to proving the validity of equation 8.9 in the case where W = 0.) Solution (a) The electric field between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is known to be (see example 2.5 in Griffiths), σ E~ = zˆ (1) o where I define zˆ as the direction in which the current is flowing. We may assume that the charge is always spread uniformly over the surfaces of the wire. The resultant charge density on each “plate” is then time-dependent because the flowing current causes charge to pile up. At time zero there is no charge on the plates, so we know that the charge density increases linearly as time progresses. It σ(t) = (2) πa2 where a is the radius of the wire and It is the total charge on the plates at any instant (current is in units of Coulombs/second, so the total charge on the end plate is the current multiplied by the length of time over which the current has been flowing).
