[FREE SOLUTION] | 91Ó°ÊÓ

91Ó°ÊÓ

An ideal electric dipole is situated at the origin; its dipole moment points in the z direction and is quadratic in time:

p(t)=12p¨0t2z^ â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰(−∞<t<∞)

wherep¨0is a constant.

  1. Use the method of Section 11.1.2 to determine the (exact) electric and magnetic fields for all r > 0 (there's also a delta-function term at the origin, but we're not concerned with that).
  2. Calculate the power, P(r,t), passing through a sphere of radius r.
  3. Find the total power radiated (Eq. 11.2), and check that your answer is consistent with Eq. 11.60.21

Step by step solution

01

Understanding of dipole moment

Dipole moment is a property of dipole which develops when a certain distance separates two charged particles. The main reason behind the rise of this property is the electronegativity and difference between chemically bonded atoms or elements.

02

Determination of the Electric field and Magnetic field

(a)

From equation 11.4, we can write,

p(t)=q(t)dz^

And we know that,

q(t)=q0cos(Ó¬³Ù)=kdt2...(i)

Here,

k=12p¨0

From equation 11.5, we get:

V(r,t)=14πε0q0​cosӬt−r+c​r+−q0​cosӬt−r−c​r−...(ii)

Now, by using equation (i), we can modify equation (ii) as:

V(r,t)=14πε0kt−r+c2​r+−kt−r−c2​r−

Taking common the term k, we get:

V(r,t)=k4πε0t−r+c2​r+−t−r−c2​r−=k4πε0t+2r+c2−2tr+c​r+−t+2r−c2−2tr−cr−=k4πε0t1r+−1r−2+1c2(r+−r−)...(iii)

By using equations 11.8 and 11.9, we can write:

r±≅r1∓d2r³¦´Ç²õθ

And

1r±≅r1±d2r³¦´Ç²õθ

Now, putting the values in equation (iii), we get:

role="math" localid="1658838599556" V(r,t)=k4πε0t2rdr³¦´Ç²õθ+rc2dr³¦´Ç²õθ=k4πε0c2d³¦´Ç²õθctr2−1

Now, putting the value of k, we get:

role="math" localid="1658838650158" V(r,t)=12p¨04πε0c2​³¦´Ç²õθctr2−1=μ0p¨08π​³¦´Ç²õθctr2−1

From equation 11.15, we can write:

I(t)=dqdtz^=2ktz^

Again from equations 11.16 and 11.17, we get:

A(r,t)=μ04π∫−d2+d2−q0ӬsinӬt−rcz^rdz...(11.16)

And

A(r,θ,t)=−μ0p0Ó¬4Ï€°ùsin[Ó¬(t−rc)]z^

Therefore, from equation (11.16), we can further calculate as:

A(r,t)=μ04Ï€z^∫−d2+d22kt−rcrdz=μ04Ï€z^ 2kt−rcr=μ0p¨04Ï€³¦ctr−1z^

We know that the formulae of Electric field intensity can be written as

E=−∇V−∂A∂t

Therefore,

E=−μ0p¨08π​cosθ[−2(ct)2r3]r^−1rsinθctr2−1θ^−μ0p¨04πc​crz^=μ0p¨04πr​ctr2−1cosθr^+12ctr2+1sinθθ^

We know that the formulae for calculating magnetic flux density (B) are:

B=−∇×A=−∇×μ0p¨04Ï€³¦ctr−1z^=μ0p¨04Ï€³¦âˆ‡Ã—ctr−1(³¦´Ç²õθr^−²õ¾±²Ôθθ^)=μ0p¨0t4Ï€°ù2²õ¾±²Ôθϕ^

03

Determination of power passing through the sphere.

(b)

For the determination of power, we have to use a pointing vector which is:

S=1μ0(E×B)

Putting the respective expressions of E and B, we get:

S=1μ0(E×B)=1μ0μ0p¨04πr​ctr2−1cosθr^+12ctr2+1sinθθ^×μ0p¨0t4πr2sinθϕ^=μ0p¨20t32π2​ctr2−1sin2θr3(r2sinθdθdϕ)

Therefore, power radiated can be calculated as

P(r,t0)=∫0Ï€²õ»åθ=∫0πμ0p¨20t32Ï€2​ctr2−1sin2θr3(r2²õ¾±²Ôθ»åθdÏ•)»åθ=μ0p¨20t32Ï€2​ctr2−12π∫0Ï€sin3θ»åθ=μ0p¨20t12Ï€°ù​ctr2−1...(iv)

04

To check the consistency of the answer.

(c)

To check the consistency with the equation Eq. 11.60.21, we can do the following:

From equation (iv), we can write:

P(r,t0​+r/c)=μ0p¨2012Ï€°ù​t0​+rccr2(t02​+2t0​rc+rc2+1=μ0p¨2012Ï€³¦â€‹1+ct0r2+2ct0r+ct0r2

Therefore,

The radiated power:

Prad=limr→∞Pr,t0​+rc=μ0p¨206Ï€³¦â€‹

8 Suppose the (electrically neutral) yz plane carries a time-dependent but uniform surface current K (t) Z.

(a) Find the electric and magnetic fields at a height x above the plane if

(i) a constant current is turned on at t = 0:

K(t)={0, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰t≤0K0, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰t>0}

(ii) a linearly increasing current is turned on at t = 0:

K(t)={0, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰t≤0αt, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰t>0}

(b) Show that the retarded vector potential can be written in the form, and from

A(x,t)=μ0c2z^∫0∞K(t−xc−u)du

And from this determine E and B.

(c) Show that the total power radiated per unit area of surface is

μ0c2[K(t)]2

Explain what you mean by "radiation," in this case, given that the source is not localized.22

An insulating circular ring (radius b) lies in the xy plane, centered at the origin. It carries a linear charge density λ=λ0sinϕ, whereλ0 is constant andϕ is the usual azimuthal angle. The ring is now set spinning at a constant angular velocity Ӭ about the z axis. Calculate the power radiated

In Bohr’s theory of hydrogen, the electron in its ground state was supposed to travel in a circle of radius 5×10-11m, held in orbit by the Coulomb attraction of the proton. According to classical electrodynamics, this electron should radiate, and hence spiral in to the nucleus. Show thatv≪c for most of the trip (so you can use the Larmor formula), and calculate the lifespan of Bohr’s atom. (Assume each revolution is essentially circular.)

A point charge q, of mass m, is attached to a spring of constant k.Y2<<Ó¬0Attimet=0it is given a kick, so its initial energy is U0=12mv02. Now it oscillates, gradually radiating away this energy.

(a) Confirm that the total energy radiated is equal to U0. Assume the radiation damping is small, so you can write the equation of motion as and the solution as

role="math" localid="1658840767865" x+y+x+Ó¬02x=0,

and the solution as

x(t)=v0Ó¬0e-yt/2sin(Ó¬0t)

with Ӭ0≡k/m,Y=Ӭ02T, and Y2<<Ӭ0 (drop Y2in comparison to Ӭ02, and when you average over a complete cycle, ignore the change in e-yτ).

(b) Suppose now we have two such oscillators, and we start them off with identical kicks. Regardless of their relative positions and orientations, the total energy radiated must be 2U0. But what if they are right on top of each other, so it's equivalent to a single oscillator with twice the charge; the Larmor formula says that the power radiated is four times as great, suggesting that the total will be 4U0. Find the error in this reasoning, and show that the total is actually2U0, as it should be.

A current I(t)flows around the circular ring in Fig. 11.8. Derive the general formula for the power radiated (analogous to Eq. 11.60), expressing your answer in terms of the magnetic dipole moment, m(t) , of the loop.
