Step 3:Determine thevalue Maxwell’s equation for the given functions of  B and E

Determine the value of first Maxwell’s equation for the given functions of Band.E

Substitute θ(υt−r)∇ for and (−14πε0qr2r^)−14πε0qr2r^⋅∇|θ(υt−r)| into equation (1).

∇⋅E=θ(υt−r)∇⋅(−14πε0qr2r^)−14πε0qr2r^⋅∇|θ(υt−r)|=−qε0δ3(r)θ(υt−r)−14πε0qr2(r^⋅r^)∂∂rθ(υt−r)

From problem 1.45, we are given the next δ3(r)θ(υt−r)−δ3(r)θ(t)and ∂∂rθ(υt−r)−−δ(υt−r). So, plug these expressions into equation (1) to get.

∇⋅E=−qε0δ3(r)θ(Ï…t−r)−14πε0qr2(r^â‹…r^)∂∂rθ(Ï…t−r)ÒÏ=ε0∇⋅E−−qδ3(r)θ(t)+q4Ï€r2δ(Ï…t−r)

Determine the value of second Maxwell’s equation for the given functions of Band.E

Plug the expression ofB, so we get it by

Substitute ∇⋅(0) for ∇and ∇⋅(0)=0

Determine the value of third Maxwell’s equation for the given functions of Band E.

Given that the electric field is independent of θ and ϕ the vector product will be zero.

Substitute ϕ for ∂B→∂tinto equation (2).

∇×E→=0

Determine the value of fourth Maxwell’s equation for the given functions of BandE.

To obtain the current density, plug in the formula for B and E as follows:

Substitute (−14πε0qr2θ(υt−r))r^ for E→ into equation (3).

∇×0=μ0J→+μ0ε0∂∂t(−14πε0qr2θ(υt−r))r^0=J→+ε0∂∂t(−14πε0qr2θ(υt−r))r^J→=−ε0∂∂t(−14πε0qr2θ(υt−r))r^=−ε0(−14πε0)qr2∂∂t(θ(υt−r))r^

Solve further as

J→=(q4πr2)(δ(υt−r))r^.

(a) Two metal objects are embedded in weakly conducting material of conductivity σ(Fig. 7 .6). Show that the resistance between them is related to the capacitance of the arrangement by

R=∈0σC

(b) Suppose you connected a battery between 1 and 2, and charged them up to a potential differenceV0. If you then disconnect the battery, the charge will gradually leak off. Show thatV(t)=V0e-t/r, and find the time constant,τ, in terms of ∈0and .σ

Two long, straight copper pipes, each of radius a, are held a distance 2d apart (see Fig. 7.50). One is at potential V0, the other at -V0. The space surrounding the pipes is filled with weakly conducting material of conductivity σ. Find the current per unit length that flows from one pipe to the other. [Hint: Refer to Prob. 3.12.]

In the discussion of motional emf (Sect. 7.1.3) Iassumed that the wire loop (Fig. 7.10) has a resistance R; the current generated is then I=vBhR. But what if the wire is made out of perfectly conducting material, so that Ris zero? In that case, the current is limited only by the back emf associated with the self-inductanceL of the loop (which would ordinarily be negligible in comparison with IR). Show that in this regime the loop (massm ) executes simple harmonic motion, and find its frequency. [Answer: Ó¬=Bh/mL].

Suppose the circuit in Fig. 7.41 has been connected for a long time when suddenly, at time t=0, switch S is thrown from A to B, bypassing the battery.

Notice the similarity to Eq. 7.28-in a sense, the rectangular toroid is a short coaxial cable, turned on its side.

(a) What is the current at any subsequent time t?

(b) What is the total energy delivered to the resistor?

(c) Show that this is equal to the energy originally stored in the inductor.

Find the energy stored in a section of length lof a long solenoid (radiusR, currentI, n turns per unit length),

(a) using Eq. 7.30 (you found L in Prob. 7.24);

(b) using Eq. 7.31 (we worked out A in Ex. 5.12);

(c) using Eq. 7.35;

(d) using Eq. 7.34 (take as your volume the cylindrical tube from radius a<R out to radiusb>R).
