(a) The expression of the electric field is2λ4πε0d .

(b) The expression for magnetic field isμ04π2Id.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

The uniform line charge isλ.

The constant speed is V.

02

Determine the equation to calculate the electric field and magnetic field.

The equation to calculate the electric field (Eq. 10.75) is given as follows.

E=q4πε0(1-v2c21-v2c2sin2θ32)R^R2 …… (1)

Here, q is the charge, v is the speed, c is the velocity of light, R is the vector from the present location of the particle to and r is the angle between the R and V.

The expression for the magnetic field (Eq. 10.76) is given as follows.

B=1c2(v×E) …… (2)

03

Calculate the expression for the electric field.

Consider the figure given below

Here d and are R the distances.

The expression of sin of angle is given by.

sinθ=dR

Take a square of above equation.

sin2θ=d2R21R2=sin2θd2

The value of cosine of angle is given by,

cosθ=-xdx=-dcosθ

Here x is the distance on infinite long wire.

dx=-d-cosec2θdθdx=dsin2θdθ

Multiply1R2 both the sides of the above equation.

1R2dx=1R2dsin2θdθ

Substitutesin2θd2 for1R2 into above equation.

1R2dx=sin2θd2dsin2θdθ1R2dx=1ddθdx=R2ddθ

The vertical component of is R .

The electric field due to the line charge is given by,

E=λ4πε01-v2c2∫R^R2dx1-v2c2sin2θ32

SubstituteR2ddθ for dx into above equation.

role="math" localid="1658292396875" E=λ4πε01-v2c2∫0πy^R2R2ddθsinθ1-v2c2sin2θ32E=λ4πε01-v2c2y^d∫0πsinθdθ1-v2c2sin2θ32

…….. (3)

Let assume,

z=cosθdz=-sinθdθ

Substitute 1-z2for sin2θ into equation (3).

E=λ4πε01-v2c2y^d∫-11dz1-v2c21-z232E=λ4πε01-v2c2y^d∫-11dz1-v2c2+v2c2z232E=λ4πε01-v2c2y^d1vc3zcv2-1cv2-1+z2-11E=λ4πε01-v2c2y^dcv11-v2c22cv2

Solve further as,

E=λ4πε0d1-v2c2cv11-v2c22cv2y^E=2λ4πε0dy^

Hence the expression of the electric field is 2λ4πε0d.

04

Determine the expression for the magnetic field.

Calculate the expression for magnetic field.

Substitute 2λ4πε0dy^for E into equation (2).

B=1c2vx^×2λ4πε0dy^B=1c22λv4πε0dx^×y^B=1c214πε02λvdz^

Substitute I forλv and μ0ε0for 1c2 into above equation.

B=μ0ε014πε02Idz^B=μ04π2Idz^\

Hence the expression for magnetic field isμ04π2Id.

A piece of wire bent into a loop, as shown in Fig. 10.5, carries a current that increases linearly with time:

I(t)=kt(-∞<t<∞)

Calculate the retarded vector potential A at the center. Find the electric field at the center. Why does this (neutral) wire produce an electric field? (Why can’t you determine the magnetic field from this expression for A?)

Confirm that the retarded potentials satisfy the Lorenz gauge condition.

∇⋅(Jr)=1r(∇⋅J)+12(∇'⋅J)−∇'⋅(Jr)

Where ∇denotes derivatives with respect to, and∇' denotes derivatives with respect tor'. Next, noting that J(r',t−r/c)depends on r'both explicitly and through, whereas it depends on r only through, confirm that

∇⋅J=−1cJ˙⋅(∇r), ∇'â‹…J=−ÒÏ˙−1cJ˙⋅(∇'r)

Use this to calculate the divergence ofA (Eq. 10.26).]

Question: Suppose you take a plastic ring of radius and glue charge on it, so that the line charge density is . Then you spin the loop about its axis at an angular velocity . Find the (exact) scalar and vector potentials at the center of the ring. [Answer:]

Find the (Lorenz gauge) potentials and fields of a time-dependent ideal electric dipole p(t) at the origin. (It is stationary, but its magnitude and/or direction are changing with time.) Don't bother with the contact term. [Answer:

V(r,t)=14πε0r^r2⋅[p+(r/c)p˙]A(r,t)=μ04π[]E(r,t)=−μ04π{P¨−r^(r^⋅p¨)+c2[p+(r/c)p˙]−3r^(r^⋅[p+(r/c)p˙])r3}B(r,t)=−μ04π{r^×[p˙+(r/c)p¨]r2}

Where all the derivatives of p are evaluated at the retarded time.]
