Apply Eqs. 11.59 and 11.60 to the rotating dipole of Prob. 11.4. Explain any apparent discrepancies with your previous answer

Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation of the Poynting vectorS=μ0p02Ӭ416π2csin2θr2r^ disagrees with the value of Poynting vector S in problem 11.4 because, in this problem, the polar axis is along the direction ofpt0¨ .

For the case of total radiated power, the value ofPradt0=μ0p02Ӭ46πc agrees with the value of P in problem 11.4 because, in this problem, the integration of all angles is calculated, and the orientation of the polar axis is irrelevant.

Step by step solution

01

Expression for the dipole moment of rotating dipole:

Write the expression for the dipole moment of the rotating dipole.

p(t)=p0cos(Ӭt)x^+p0sin(Ӭt)y^ …… (1)

Write the expression for the Poynting vector (using equation 11.59 ).

S=μ0p¨t216π2csin2θr2r^ …… (2)

Write the expression for the total radiated power (using equation ).

Pradt0≅μ06πcp¨t02 …… (3)

02

Determine the apparent discrepancies:

Take the double differentiation of equation (1).

p˙t=-p0ӬsinӬtx^+p0ӬcosӬty^p¨t=-p0Ӭ2cosӬtx^-p0Ӭ2sinӬty^p¨t=-p0Ӭ2cosӬtx^+sinӬty^

Substitutep¨t=-p0Ӭ2cosӬtx^+sinӬty^ in the above value in equation (2).

S=μ0-p0Ӭ2cosӬtx^+sinӬty^216π2csin2θr2r^S=μ0p02Ӭ416π2ccos2Ӭt+sin2Ӭtsin2θr2r^S=μ0p02Ӭ416π2csin2θr2r^

Hence, the above equation disagrees with the value of Poynting vector S in problem 11.4 because, in this problem, the polar axis is along the direction of p¨t0.

Substitutep¨t=-p0Ӭ2cosӬtx^+sinӬty^ in equation (3).

Pradt0≅μ06πc-p0Ӭ2cosӬtx^+sinӬty^2Pradt0=μ0p02Ӭ46πc

For the case of total radiated power, the value ofPradt0=μ0p02Ӭ46πc agrees with the value of P in problem 11.4 because, in this problem, the integration of all angles is calculated, and the orientation of the polar axis is irrelevant.

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.

(a) Does a particle in hyperbolic motion (Eq. 10.52) radiate? (Use the exact formula (Eq. 11.75) to calculate the power radiated.)

(b) Does a particle in hyperbolic motion experience a radiation reaction? (Use the exact formula (Prob. 11.33) to determine the reaction force.)

[Comment: These famous questions carry important implications for the principle of equivalence.]

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 particle of mass m and charge q is attached to a spring with force constant k, hanging from the ceiling (Fig. 11.18). Its equilibrium position is a distance h above the floor. It is pulled down a distance d below equilibrium and released, at timet=0.

(a) Under the usual assumptions (d≪λ≪h), calculate the intensity of the radiation hitting the floor, as a function of the distance R from the point directly below q. [Note: The intensity here is the average power per unit area of floor.]

FIGURE 11.18

At whatR is the radiation most intense? Neglect the radiative damping of the oscillator.

(b) As a check on your formula, assume the floor is of infinite extent, and calculate the average energy per unit time striking the entire floor. Is it what you’d expect?

(c) Because it is losing energy in the form of radiation, the amplitude of the oscillation will gradually decrease. After what timebhas the amplitude been reduced to d/e? (Assume the fraction of the total energy lost in one cycle is very small.)

Find the radiation resistance (Prob. 11.3) for the oscillating magnetic dipole in Fig. 11.8. Express your answer in terms ofλand b , and compare the radiation resistance of the electric dipole. [ Answer: 3×105(bλ)4Ω]
