In system S0, a static uniform line charge coincides with thez axis.

(a) Write the electric fieldE0 in Cartesian coordinates, for the point (x0,y0,z0).

(b) Use Eq. 12.109 to find the electric in S, which moves with speedv in the x direction with respect to S0. The field is still in terms of (x0,y0,z0); express it instead in terms of the coordinates(x,y,z) in S. Finally, write E in terms of the vector S from the present location of the wire and the angle between S and x^. Does the field point away from the instantaneous location of the wire, like the field of a uniformly moving point charge?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The electric field in Cartesian coordinates for the pointx0,y0,z0 is E0=20(x02+y02)x0x^+y0y^.

(b) The electric field in S is E鈬赌=201-v2c2S1-vc2sin2.

Step by step solution

01

Expression for the position vector in the Cartesian coordinate system for the point (x0,y0,z0) :

Draw the Cartesian coordinate system for the point x0,y0,z0.

From the above figure, write the position vector.

S=x02+y02

Here,x0andy0are the two points on X and Y axis.

02

Determine the electric field in Cartesian coordinates for the point (x0,y0,z0):

(a)

Write the expression for the electric field of charged conductor on z-axis.

E0=20SS^ 鈥︹ (1)

Here, is the line charge density andS^ is the unit vector.

Write the expression for the unit vector.

S^=x0x^+y0y^x02+y02

SubstituteS^=x0x^+y0y^x02+y02 andS=x02+y02 in equation (1).

role="math" localid="1654068317146" E0=20x02+y02x0x^+y0y^x02+y02E0=20x02+y02x0x^+y0y^ 鈥︹ (2)

Therefore, the electric field in Cartesian coordinates for the pointx0,y0,z0 is role="math" localid="1654068403951" E0=20x02+y02x0x^+y0y^.

03

Determine the electric field in S:

(b)

Write the expressions for an inverse Lorentz transform equations.

x0=x+vty0=yE鈬赌x=ExE鈬赌y=Ey

Here, is the Lorentz contraction, v is the speed and t is the time.

Write equation (2) in the form of x component of an electric field.

Ex=20x02+y02x0

As it is known that E鈬赌x=Ex, the value ofE鈬赌xwill be,

E鈬赌x=20x02+y02x0

Substitutex0=x+vtandy0=yin the above expression.

E鈬赌x=20x+vt2+y2x+vt

Similarly, write equation (2) in the form of y-component of an electric field.

Ey=20x02+y02y0

Also, role="math" localid="1654068933653" E鈬赌y=Eythe value ofE鈬赌ywill be,

Ey鈬赌=20x02+y02y0

Substitutex0=x+vtandy0=yin the above expression.

role="math" localid="1654069100586" E鈬赌y=20x+vt2+y2y

Hence, the net electric field will be,

E鈬赌=E鈬赌x+E鈬赌yE鈬赌=20x+vt2+y2x+vt+20x+vt2+y2yE鈬赌=20x+vt2+y2x+vt+y

On further solving,

E鈬赌=20x+vt+yx+vt2+y2E鈬赌=201x+vtx^+yy^x+vt2+y2 鈥︹ (3)

Here,x+vtx^+yy^=S

Take the magnitude of S.

S=x+vt2+y2S2=x+vt2+y2

Here, y=Ssin.

Solve the denominator value of equation (3).

x+vt2+y2=x+vt2+y21-v2c2x+vt2+y2=x+vt2+y2-y2v2c2x+vt2+y2=S2-Ssin2v2c2x+vt2+y2=S2-vc2S2sin2

Substitute 12=1-v2c2,x+vtx^+yy^=Sand x+vt2+y2=S2-vc2S2sin2in equation (3).

E鈬赌=201-v2c2SS2-vc2S2sin2E鈬赌=201-v2c2SS21-vc2sin2E鈬赌=201-v2c2S1-vc2sin2

Hence, the field point is away from the instantaneous location of the wire.

Therefore, the electric field in S is E鈬赌=201-v2c2S1-vc2sin2.
