[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

Short Answer

  1. The (exact) electric and magnetic fields for all r > 0 is V=μ0p¨08πcosctr2−1,
  2. the power, P(r, t), passing through a sphere of radius r. is μ0p¨0212πε0r3tt2+rc2
  3. The radiated power is Prad=μ0p¨206Ï€³¦â€‹

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€‹
