Class 28: Outline: Hour 1: Displacement Current Maxwell's Equations Hour 2: Electromagnetic Waves

The objectives of this course are to tease out the laws of electromagnetism from our everyday experience by specific examples of how electromagnetic phenomena manifest themselves. We want to be able: To describe, in words, the ways in which various concepts in electromagnetism come into play in particular situations; To represent these electromagnetic phenomena and fields mathematically in those situations; And to predict outcomes in other similar situations. The overall goal is to use the scientific method to come to understand the enormous variety of electromagnetic phenomena in terms of a few relatively simple laws.

Ampere’s Law: Capacitor
Consider a charging capacitor:
I Use Ampere’s Law to calculate the
magnetic field just above the top plate

Ampere's law: ∫ B ⋅ d s = µ 0 I enc

1) Red Amperian Area, Ienc= I


2) Green Amperian Area, I = 0

What’s Going On?

Displacement Current
We don’t have current between the capacitor
plates but we do have a changing E field. Can we
“make” a current out of that?

Electromagnetism Review

• E fields are created by:


(1) electric charges Gauss’s Law
(2) time changing B fields Faraday’s Law
• B fields are created by
(1) moving electric charges Ampere’s Law
(NOT magnetic charges)
(2) time changing E fields Maxwell’s Addition

• E (B) fields exert forces on (moving) electric charges

Traveling Waves
Consider f(x) =

x=0
What is g(x,t) = f(x-vt)?
t=0 t=t0 t=2t0

x=0 x=vt0 x=2vt0


f(x-vt) is traveling wave moving to the right!
P28- 15
Traveling Sine Wave
Now consider f(x) = y = y0sin(kx):

Amplitude (y0)
Wavelength (λ ) =
wavenumber (k )

What is g(x,t) = f(x+vt)? Travels to left at velocity v


y = y0sin(k(x+vt)) = y0sin(kx+kvt)
P28- 16
Traveling Sine Wave
y = y0 sin ( kx + kvt )
At x=0, just a function of time: y = y0 sin( kvt ) ≡ y0 sin(ω t )
