we calculated the energy per unit time radiated by a (non-relativistic) point charge- the Larmor formula. In the same spirit:

(a) Calculate the momentum per unit time radiated.

(b) Calculate the angular momentum per unit time radiated.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Themomentum per unit time radiated is 0q26c3a2v.

(b) The angular momentum per unit time radiated is0q26c(va)

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

The Larmor formula is as follows:

dpdtr=0q26c3a2v

02

Determine the formulas to calculate the momentum per unit time radiated and the angular momentum per unit time radiated.

The expression of equation of motion of accelerated charge is given as follows:

ma=Ee 鈥︹ (1)

Here,Eis the electric field strength, eis the charge of electron, mis the mass of the electron and is the acceleration.

The electric field is varying simple harmonically is given as follows鈥

E=E0e-jt 鈥︹ (2)

The relation between the linear momentum and angular momentum is given as follows:

role="math" localid="1658122582746" L=rp鈥︹ (3)

Here,Lis the linear momentum, pis the angular momentum, ris the radius.

03

Determine the momentum per unit time radiated.

(a)

From the equation (1)

ma=Eea=Eem鈥︹ (4)

Now substitute equation (2) in equation (4) and simplify,

d2rdt2=E0e-jtqm

Integrating above equation twice and simplify.

d2rdt2=E0ejtqmdrdt=qE0mejtdrdt=qE0mj[ejt]

Again integrate,

drdt=qE0mj[ejt]r=qE0mi22[ejt]r=qE0m2[ejt]

The dipole moment of an oscillating electric dipole is,

P=qr

Here, qis the magnitude of each charge and ris the separation between the two charges.

Then,

|P|=|-q2E0m2|[e-jt]鈥︹ (5)

Now,

P=[q0dl]e-jtP=P0e-jt鈥︹ (6)

Comparing the equations (5) and (6).

P0=q2E0m2

If ais the acceleration of the charged particle, under the action of electric field of frequency att=0 , then

ma=qE0e-jtma=qE0|t=0a=qE0|t=0m

The time averaged power radiated is given by:

P=140q2a2443c3P=140q2a23c3

Then:

P=140q2a23c3

If pis the instantaneous power, then average power

P=Pcos2(t-rc)P=Pcos2(t-rc)

The average value ofcos2(t-rc)=12

Then,

P=P2P=2P

SubstituteP=140q2a23c3 in the above equation and simplify,

P=2[140q2a23c3]=160q2a2c3

Momentum per unit time in radiation is the amount of force.

The relativistic velocity is,

v2=1000=10v2

Power is the product of force and velocity.

P=Fv16(10v2)q2a2c3=FvF=06q2a2c3v

Therefore, the momentum per unit is radiated is06q2a2c3v

04

 Step 4: Determine the angular momentum per unit time radiated.

(b)

The angular momentum per unit time is

Lt=rpt

But force is the rate of change of momentum.

F=pt

Then, solve for the angular momentum per unit time as:

Lt=rFLt=r[06q2ac]vLt=[06q2ac]vLt=[06q2c][va]

Therefore, angular momentum per unit time is[06q2c][va]

An electric dipole rotates at constant angular velocity in thexy plane. (The charges,q , are at r=R(cos蝇tx^+sin蝇ty^); the magnitude of the dipole moment is p=2qR.)

(a) Find the interaction term in the self-torque (analogous to Eq. 11.99). Assume the motion is nonrelativistic ( 蝇R<<c).

(b) Use the method of Prob. 11.20(a) to obtain the total radiation reaction torque on this system. [answer: -0p236蟺肠z^]

(c) Check that this result is consistent with the power radiated (Eq. 11.60).

Check that the retarded potentials of an oscillating dipole (Eqs. 11.12 and 11.17) satisfy the Lorenz gauge condition. Do not use approximation 3.

Equation 11.14 can be expressed in 鈥渃oordinate-free鈥 form by writing p0cos=p0r^. Do so, and likewise for Eqs. 11.17, 11.18. 11.19, and 11.21.

In Bohr鈥檚 theory of hydrogen, the electron in its ground state was supposed to travel in a circle of radius 510-11m, 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 thatvc for most of the trip (so you can use the Larmor formula), and calculate the lifespan of Bohr鈥檚 atom. (Assume each revolution is essentially circular.)

A point charge q, of mass m, is attached to a spring of constant k.Y2<<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+02x=0,

and the solution as

x(t)=v00e-yt/2sin(0t)

with 0k/m,Y=02T, and Y2<<0 (drop Y2in comparison to 02, and when you average over a complete cycle, ignore the change in e-y).

(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.
