Check that the potentials of a point charge moving at constant velocity (Eqs. 10.49 and 10.50) satisfy the Lorenz gauge condition (Eq. 10.12).
In Chapter 5, I showed that it is always possible to pick a vector potential whose divergence is zero (the Coulomb gauge). Show that it is always possible to choose, as required for the Lorenz gauge, assuming you know how to solve the inhomogeneous wave equation (Eq. 10.16). Is it always possible to pick ? How about ?

(a) Use Eq. 10.75 to calculate the electric field a distanced from an infinite straight wire carrying a uniform line charge ., moving at a constant speed down the wire.
(b) Use Eq. 10.76 to find the magnetic field of this wire.
For the configuration in Ex. 10.1, consider a rectangular box of length , width , and height , situated a distanced above the plane (Fig. 10.2).

(a) Find the energy in the box at time, and at.
(b) Find the Poynting vector, and determine the energy per unit time flowing into the box during the interval.
(c) Integrate the result in (b) from to , and confirm that the increase in energy (part (a)) equals the net influx.
