Step by step solution

01

Significance of magnetostatics

Magnetostatics is mainly used for predicting fast switching magnetic events which occur in less than a nanosecond. Moreover, magnetostatics is also a good approximation when there is no static current.

02

(a) Checking the equation 5.76

The equation 5.76 can be expressed as:

Babove-Bbelow=μ0(K×n^) …(¾±)

Here, Baboveand Bbeloware the magnetic field at the top and the bottom,μ0 is the permeability, k is the constant and n^is the position vector.

At the solenoid’s surface, the magnetic field at the top is zero.

The equation of the magnetic field at the bottom at solenoid’s surface is expressed as:

Bbelow=μ0nIz^

Here, lis the current andz^ is the position vector along the z axis.

Substitute for in the above equation.

Bbelow=μ0Kz^

Substitute -Kz^for(K×n^) in the equation (i).

Babove-Bbelow=-μ0Kz^

Thus, the equation 5.76 satisfies.

03

(b) Checking the equation 5.77 and 5.78

The equation in the example 5.11 is expressed as:

Ar,θ,Ï•=μ0¸éӬδ3r²õ¾±²Ôθϕ^r≤R=μ0R4Ӭδ3²õ¾±²Ôθr2Ï•^r≥R …(¾±¾±)

The equation 5.77 is expressed as:

Aabove=Abelow

The equation 5.78 is expressed as:

∂Aabove∂n-∂Abelow∂n=-μ0K

In the equation of the example 5.11, the both the equations have the same values at the surface. Hence, it satisfies the equation 5.77 asAabove=Abelow .

Differentiating the equation (ii) with respect to the coordinate r in order to find the left side of the equation 5.78 .

∂A∂rR+=μ0R4Ӭδ3-2sinθr3ϕ^R=2μ0RӬδ3sinθϕ^=μ0RӬδ3sinθϕ^

The equation of the constant K is expressed as:

K=δV=δӬ×r=δӬrsinθϕ^

Hence, the right and the left side of the equation 5.78 is satisfied.

Thus, the equations 5.77 and 5.78 is satisfied.

Most popular questions from this chapter

A uniformly charged solid sphere of radius R carries a total charge Q, and is set spinning with angular velocity w about the z axis.

(a) What is the magnetic dipole moment of the sphere?

(b) Find the average magnetic field within the sphere (see Prob. 5.59).

(c) Find the approximate vector potential at a point (r, B) where r>> R.

(d) Find the exact potential at a point (r, B) outside the sphere, and check that it is consistent with (c). [Hint: refer to Ex. 5.11.]

(e) Find the magnetic field at a point (r, B) inside the sphere (Prob. 5.30), and check that it is consistent with (b).

A current Iflows down a wire of radius a.

(a) If it is uniformly distributed over the surface, what is the surface current density K?

(b) If it is distributed in such a way that the volume current density is inversely

proportional to the distance from the axis, what is J(s)?

If B is uniform,show that A(r)=-12(r×B)works. That is, check that ∇.A=0and∇×A=B. Is this result unique, or are there other functions with the same divergence and curl?

Question: Use Eq. 5.41 to obtain the magnetic field on the axis of the rotating disk in Prob. 5.37(a). Show that the dipole field (Eq. 5.88), with the dipole moment you found in Prob. 5.37, is a good approximation if z>> R.

(a) Complete the proof of Theorem 2, Sect. 1.6.2. That is, show that any divergenceless vector field F can be written as the curl of a vector potential . What you have to do is find Ax,Ayand Azsuch that (i) ∂Az/∂y-∂Ay/∂z=Fx; (ii) ∂Ax/∂z-∂Az/∂x=Fy; and (iii) ∂Ay/∂x-∂Ax/∂y=Fz. Here's one way to do it: Pick Ax=0, and solve (ii) and (iii) for Ayand Az. Note that the "constants of integration" are themselves functions of y and z -they're constant only with respect to x. Now plug these expressions into (i), and use the fact that ∇⋅F=0to obtain

Ay=∫0xFz(x',y,z)dx';Az=∫0yFx(0,y',z)dy'-∫0yFy(x',y,z)dx'

(b) By direct differentiation, check that the you obtained in part (a) satisfies ∇×A=F. Is divergenceless? [This was a very asymmetrical construction, and it would be surprising if it were-although we know that there exists a vector whose curl is F and whose divergence is zero.]

(c) As an example, let F=yx^+zy^+xz^. Calculate , and confirm that ∇×A=F. (For further discussion, see Prob. 5.53.)
