Compare Eqs. 2.15, 4.9, and 6.11. Notice that if ÒÏ,P , and Mare uniform, the same integral is involved in all three:

∫r^r2dτ'

Therefore, if you happen to know the electric field of a uniformly charged object, you can immediately write down the scalar potential of a uniformly polarized object, and the vector potential of a uniformly magnetized object, of the same shape. Use this observation to obtain Vinside and outside a uniformly polarized sphere (Ex. 4.2), andA inside and outside a uniformly magnetized sphere (Ex. 6.1).

Short Answer

Expert verified

The inside and outside potential of uniformly magnetized sphere is13ε0Pr and13ε0R3r2Pr^ respectively. Inside and outside vector potential uniformly magnetized sphere isμ03(M×r) and μ03R3r2(M×r^)respectively.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

The charge density isÒÏ .

The uniform polarization isP .

The integral is ∫r^r2dτ'

The inside the radius of sphere is rand outside the radius of the sphere isR .

02

Determine the general formulas to calculate the V  inside and outside a uniformly polarized sphere and A inside and outside a uniformly magnetized sphere.

The expression for electric field due to uniformly charged sphere is given as follows.

E=ÒÏ[14πε0∫r^r2dÏ„'] …… (1)

The expression for the potential due to uniformly charged sphere is given as follows.

V=P⋅[14πε0∫r^r2dτ'] …… (2)

The expression for the vector potential due to uniformly magnetized sphere is given as follows.

A=μ04π∫M×r^r2dτ' …… (3)

03

Calculate the V inside and outside a uniformly polarized sphere and A inside and outside a uniformly magnetized sphere.

The volume of the sphere is given by,

∫dτ'=43πr3

The inside potential due to uniformly charged sphere is given by,

Vin=P⋅14πε0r^r243πr3Vin=P⋅13ε0rVin=13ε0Pr

The outside potential due to uniformly charged sphere is given by,

Vout=P⋅14πε0r^r243πR3Vout=P⋅13ε0R3r2r^Vout=13ε0R3r2Pr^

The vector potential due to uniformly magnetized sphere inside the sphere is given by

Ain=μ04π∫M×r^r2dτ'Ain=μ04πM×r^r2×43πr3Ain=μ03(M×r)

The vector potential due to uniformly magnetized sphere outside the sphere is given by

Aout=μ04π∫M×r^r2dτ'Aout=μ04πM×r^r2×43πR3Aout=μ03R3r2(M×r^)

Hence the inside and outside potential of uniformly magnetized sphere is13ε0Pr and 13ε0R3r2Pr^ respectively. Inside and outside vector potential uniformly magnetized sphere is μ03(M×r)and μ03R3r2(M×r^) respectively.

In Prob. 6.4, you calculated the force on a dipole by "brute force." Here's a more elegant approach. First writeB(r)as a Taylor expansion about the center of the loop:

,B(r)≅B(r0)+[(r−r0)⋅∇0]B(r0)

Wherer0the position of the dipole and ∇0is denotes differentiation with respect tor0. Put this into the Lorentz force law (Eq. 5.16) to obtain

.F=I∮dI×[(r⋅∇0)B(r0)]

Or, numbering the Cartesian coordinates from 1 to 3:

Fi=I∑j,k,l=13εijk{∮rldlj}[∇0lBk(r0)],

Where εijk is the Levi-Civita symbol (+1ifijk=123,231, or312; −1ifijk=132, 213, or 321;0otherwise), in terms of which the cross-product can be written (A×B)i=∑j,k=13εijkAjBk. Use Eq. 1.108 to evaluate the integral. Note that

∑j=13εijkεljm=δilδkm−δimδkl

Whereoil is the Kronecker delta (Prob. 3.52).




A short circular cylinder of radius and length L carries a "frozen-in" uniform magnetization M parallel to its axis. Find the bound current, and sketch the magnetic field of the cylinder. (Make three sketches: one forL>>a, one forL<<a, and one forL≈a.) Compare this bar magnet with the bar electret of Prob. 4.11.

A magnetic dipole m is imbedded at the center of a sphere (radius R) of linear magnetic material (permeability μ). Show that the magnetic field inside the sphere 0<r≤R is

μ4π{1r3[3(m.r^r^-m)]+2(μ0-μ)m(2μ0+μ)R3}

What is the field outside the sphere?

Imagine two charged magnetic dipoles (charge q, dipole moment m), constrained to move on the z axis (same as Problem 6.23(a), but without gravity). Electrically they repel, but magnetically (if both m's point in the z direction) they attract.

(a) Find the equilibrium separation distance.

(b) What is the equilibrium separation for two electrons in this orientation. [Answer: 4.72x10-13m.]

(c) Does there exist, then, a stable bound state of two electrons?

Calculate the torque exerted on the square loop shown in Fig. 6.6, due to the circular loop (assume is much larger than or ). If the square loop is free to rotate, what will its equilibrium orientation be?
