(a) one way to fill in the "missing link" in Fig. 5.48 is to exploit the analogy between the defining equations for A(viz∇-A=0,∇×A=B)and Maxwell's equations forB(viz∇.B=0∇×B=μ0J).Evidently A depends on B in exactly the same way that B depends onμ0J(to wit: the Biot-Savart law). Use this observation to write down the formula for A in terms of B.

(b) The electrical analog to your result in (a) is

localid="1658557463395" V(r)=-14π∫E(r')-r^r2dτ'

Derive it, by exploiting the appropriate analogy.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

Consider the given defining equations for A(viz.∇.A=0,∇×A=B).

Consider the given Maxwell's equations forB(viz.∇.B=0,∇×B=μ0J) .

02

Determine the formula of vector potential and exploiting the appropriate analogy.

Write the formula of vector potential.

∇×B=μ0J …… (1)

Here,μ0is permeability andJis current density.

Write the formula of exploiting the appropriate given analogy.

V(r)=-14πε0∫P(r')-r^r2dτ' …… (2)

Here,Pis volume charge density, r^is radius of spherical shell,ε0is relative pemitivity.

03

(a) Determine the value of vector potential.

Let the magnetic field strength is B.

We know that

∇×B=μ0J∇.B=0

In the integral form the magnetic field is given by,

B=μ04π∫J×r^r2dτ'

The expressions for vector potential is given as

localid="1658557591266" ∇×A=B

And

∇.A=0

Determine the vector potential.

Substitute∇×Afor B into equation (1).

∇×∇×A=μ0J

Use vector identity,

∇2A=∇∇.A-∇×∇×A

Substitute 0 for∇.Aandμ0Jfor ∇×∇×A

∇2A=-μ0J

Therefore, the vector potential can be written asA=14π∫B×r^r2dτ'.

04

(b) Determine the value of exploiting the appropriate analogy.

Poisson equation is given by,

∇2V=--Pε0

Volume charge density is given by,

pb=-∇.P

Compare both charge densities so,

P=-ε0E

Determine the potential is given by,

Substitute-ε0 for P into equation (2).

Vr=-14π∫Er'.r^r2dτ'

Therefore, the value of exploiting the appropriate analogy is Vr=-14π∫Er'.r^r2.

Most popular questions from this chapter

A thin uniform donut, carrying charge Qand mass M, rotates about its axis as shown in Fig. 5.64.

(a) Find the ratio of its magnetic dipole moment to its angular momentum. This is called the gyromagnetic ratio (or magnetomechanical ratio).

(b) What is the gyromagnetic ratio for a uniform spinning sphere? [This requires no new calculation; simply decompose the sphere into infinitesimal rings, and apply the result of part (a).]

(c) According to quantum mechanics, the angular momentum of a spinning electron is role="math" localid="1658120028604" 12, where is Planck's constant. What, then, is the electron's magnetic dipole moment, in role="math" localid="1658120037359" A×M2 ? [This semi classical value is actually off by a factor of almost exactly 2. Dirac's relativistic electron theory got the 2right, and Feynman, Schwinger, and Tomonaga later calculated tiny further corrections. The determination of the electron's magnetic dipole moment remains the finest achievement of quantum electrodynamics, and exhibits perhaps the most stunningly precise agreement between theory and experiment in all of physics. Incidentally, the quantity (e2m ), where e is the charge of the electron and m is its mass, is called the Bohr magneton.]

(a) Construct the scalar potential U(r)for a "pure" magnetic dipole m.

(b) Construct a scalar potential for the spinning spherical shell (Ex. 5.11). [Hint: forr>Rthis is a pure dipole field, as you can see by comparing Eqs. 5.69 and 5.87.]

(c) Try doing the same for the interior of a solid spinning sphere. [Hint: If you solved Pro b. 5.30, you already know the field; set it equal to -∇U, and solve for U. What's the trouble?]

Use Eq. 5.41to 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 ifz>>R.

A thin glass rod of radius Rand length Lcarries a uniform surface charge σ. It is set spinning about its axis, at an angular velocityӬ. Find the magnetic field at a distances s冈Rfrom the axis, in the xyplane (Fig. 5.66). [Hint: treat it as a stack of magnetic dipoles.]

(a) A phonograph record of radius R, carrying a uniform surface charge σ, is rotating at constant angular velocity Ӭ. Find its magnetic dipole moment.

(b) Find the magnetic dipole moment of the spinning spherical shell in Ex. 5.11. Show that for pointsr>R the potential is that of a perfect dipole.
