5. Electrostatic, Magnetostatic, and Electromagnetostatic Fields • In the static case (no time variation), the electric field (specified by E and D) and the magnetic field (specified by B and H) are described by separate and independent sets of equations. • In a conducting medium, both electrostatic and magnetostatic fields can exist, and are coupled through the Ohm’s law (J = sE). Such a situation is called electromagnetostatic. 5

6. Electromagnetostatic Fields • In an electromagnetostatic field, the electric field is completely determined by the stationary charges present in the system, and the magnetic field is completely determined by the current. • The magnetic field does not enter into the calculation of the electric field, nor does the electric field enter into the calculation of the magnetic field. 6

7. The Three Experimental Pillars of Electromagnetics • Electric charges attract/repel each other as described by Coulomb’s law. • Current-carrying wires attract/repel each other as described by Ampere’s law of force. • Magnetic fields that change with time induce electromotive force as described by Faraday’s law. 7

9. Faraday’s Experiment (Cont’d) • Upon closing the switch, current begins to flow in the primary coil. • A momentary deflection of the compassneedle indicates a brief surge of current flowing in the secondary coil. • The compass needle quickly settles back to zero. • Upon opening the switch, another brief deflection of the compass needle is observed. 9

10. S C Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction • “The electromotive force induced around a closed loop C is equal to the time rate of decrease of the magnetic flux linking the loop.” 10

13. Faraday’s Law (Cont’d) • Since the above must hold for any S, we have differential form of Faraday’s law (assuming a stationary frame of reference) 13

14. Faraday’s Law (Cont’d) • Faraday’s law states that a changing magnetic field induces an electric field. • The induced electric field is non-conservative. 14

15. Lenz’s Law • “The sense of the emf induced by the time-varying magnetic flux is such that any current it produces tends to set up a magnetic field that opposes the change in the original magnetic field.” • Lenz’s law is a consequence of conservation of energy. • Lenz’s law explains the minus sign in Faraday’s law. 15

16. Faraday’s Law • “The electromotive force induced around a closed loop C is equal to the time rate of decrease of the magnetic flux linking the loop.” • For a coil of N tightly wound turns 16

18. Faraday’s Law (Cont’d) • Faraday’s law applies to situations where • (1) the B-field is a function of time • (2) ds is a function of time • (3) B and ds are functions of time 18

19. Faraday’s Law (Cont’d) • The induced emf around a circuit can be separated into two terms: • (1) due to the time-rate of change of the B-field (transformer emf) • (2) due to the motion of the circuit (motional emf) 19

28. Ampere’s Law and the Continuity Equation • The differential form of Ampere’s law in the static case is • The continuity equation is 28

29. Ampere’s Law and the Continuity Equation (Cont’d) • In the time-varying case, Ampere’s law in the above form is inconsistent with the continuity equation 29

30. Ampere’s Law and the Continuity Equation (Cont’d) • To resolve this inconsistency, Maxwell modified Ampere’s law to read displacement current density conduction current density 30

32. Displacement Current • Ampere’s law can be written as where 32

33. Displacement Current (Cont’d) • Displacement current is the type of current that flows between the plates of a capacitor. • Displacement current is the mechanism which allows electromagnetic waves to propagate in a non-conducting medium. • Displacement current is a consequence of the three experimental pillars of electromagnetics. 33

40. Conduction to Displacement Current Ratio (Cont’d) • The value of the quantity s/we at a specified frequency determines the properties of the medium at that given frequency. • In a metallic conductor, the displacement current is negligible below optical frequencies. • In free space (or other perfect dielectric), the conduction current is zero and only displacement current can exist. 40

42. Complex Permittivity • In a good insulator, the conduction current (due to non-zero s) is usually negligible. • However, at high frequencies, the rapidly varying electric field has to do work against molecular forces in alternately polarizing the bound electrons. • The result is that Pis not necessarily in phase with E, and the electric susceptibility, and hence the dielectric constant, are complex. 42

43. Complex Permittivity (Cont’d) • The complex dielectric constant can be written as • Substituting the complex dielectric constant into the differential frequency-domain form of Ampere’s law, we have 43

44. Complex Permittivity (Cont’d) • Thus, the imaginary part of the complex permittivity leads to a volume current density term that is in phase with the electric field, as if the material had an effective conductivity given by • The power dissipated per unit volume in the medium is given by 44

45. Complex Permittivity (Cont’d) • The term we E2 is the basis for microwave heating of dielectric materials. • Often in dielectric materials, we do not distinguish between s and we, and lump them together in we as • The value of seff is often determined by measurements. 45

46. Complex Permittivity (Cont’d) • In general, both e and e depend on frequency, exhibiting resonance characteristics at several frequencies. 46

47. Complex Permittivity (Cont’d) • In tabulating the dielectric properties of materials, it is customary to specify the real part of the dielectric constant (e / e0) and the loss tangent (tand) defined as 47

48. Complex Permeability • Like the electric field, the magnetic field encounters molecular forces which require work to overcome in magnetizing the material. • In analogy with permittivity, the permeability can also be complex 48
