Maxwell's Equations and Electromagnetic Waves 13.1 The Displacement Current In Chapter 9,we learned that if a current-carrying wire possesses certain symmetry,the magnetic field could be obtained by using Ampere's law: Bds=Molcne (13.1.1) The equation states that the line integral of a magnetic field around an arbitrary closed loop is equal to ol where I is the flux of the charge carries passing through the surface bound by the closed path.In addition,we also learned in Chapter 10 that,as a consequence of Faraday's law of induction,an electric field is associated with a changing magnetic field,according to (13.1.2) One might then wonder whether or not the converse could be true,namely,a magnetic field is associated with a changing electric field.If so,then the right-hand side of Eq. (13.1.1)will have to be modified to reflect such "symmetry"between electric and magnetic fields,E and B To see how magnetic fields are associated with a time-varying electric field,consider the process of charging a capacitor.During the charging process,the electric field strength increases with time as more charge is accumulated on the plates.The conduction current that carries the charges also produces a magnetic field.In order to apply Ampere's law to calculate this field,let us choose curve C as the Amperian loop,shown in Figure 13.1.1.

13-3 Maxwell’s Equations and Electromagnetic Waves 13.1 The Displacement Current In Chapter 9, we learned that if a current-carrying wire possesses certain symmetry, the magnetic field could be obtained by using Ampere’s law: ! B! d ! s "" = µ0 Ienc . (13.1.1) The equation states that the line integral of a magnetic field around an arbitrary closed loop is equal to 0 enc µ I , where enc I is the flux of the charge carries passing through the surface bound by the closed path. In addition, we also learned in Chapter 10 that, as a consequence of Faraday’s law of induction, an electric field is associated with a changing magnetic field, according to ! E! d ! s "" = # d dt ! B! d ! A S "" . (13.1.2) One might then wonder whether or not the converse could be true, namely, a magnetic field is associated with a changing electric field. If so, then the right-hand side of Eq. (13.1.1) will have to be modified to reflect such “symmetry” between electric and magnetic fields, E ! and B ! . To see how magnetic fields are associated with a time-varying electric field, consider the process of charging a capacitor. During the charging process, the electric field strength increases with time as more charge is accumulated on the plates. The conduction current that carries the charges also produces a magnetic field. In order to apply Ampere’s law to calculate this field, let us choose curve C1 as the Amperian loop, shown in Figure 13.1.1. Figure 13.1.1 Surfaces 1 S and 2 S bound by curve C1
If the surface bounded by the path is the flat surface S,then the enclosed current is I=1.On the other hand,if we choose 2 to be the surface bounded by the curve,then =0 because there is no current through S2.Thus,we see that there exists an ambiguity in choosing the appropriate surface bounded by the curve C. Maxwell resolved this ambiguity by adding to the right-hand side of Ampere's law an extra term dΦE ola=odi (13.1.3) He called the quantity I the displacement current, d Ia=Eo dt (13.1.4) The displacement current is proportional to the change in electric flux.The generalized Ampere's (or the Ampere-Maxwell)law now reads ∮Bd5=/+4,e。 d=4,I+l） (13.1.5) The origin of the displacement current can be understood as follows: S2 Figure 13.1.2 Displacement through S2 In Figure 13.1.2,we have assumed that the electric field is uniform between the capacitor plates and zero outside.Recall that the magnitude of the electric field for such a configuration is E=/A,where A is the area of the capacitor plates.Then the electric flux through the surface S,is given by ΦE=∯EaA=EA=旦 (13.1.6) S2 13-4
13-4 If the surface bounded by the path is the flat surface 1 S , then the enclosed current is enc I = I . On the other hand, if we choose 2 S to be the surface bounded by the curve, then enc I = 0 because there is no current through 2 S . Thus, we see that there exists an ambiguity in choosing the appropriate surface bounded by the curve C1 . Maxwell resolved this ambiguity by adding to the right-hand side of Ampere’s law an extra term µ0 Id = µ0 ! 0 d"E dt . (13.1.3) He called the quantity Id the displacement current, Id = ! 0 d"E dt . (13.1.4) The displacement current is proportional to the change in electric flux. The generalized Ampere’s (or the Ampere-Maxwell) law now reads ! B! d ! s "" = µ0 I + µ0 # 0 d$E dt = µ0 (I + Id ) . (13.1.5) The origin of the displacement current can be understood as follows: Figure 13.1.2 Displacement through 2 S In Figure 13.1.2, we have assumed that the electric field is uniform between the capacitor plates and zero outside. Recall that the magnitude of the electric field for such a configuration is E = Q / A! 0 , where A is the area of the capacitor plates. Then the electric flux through the surface 2 S is given by !E = ! E" d ! A S2 "## = EA = Q $ 0 . (13.1.6)
From Eq.(13.1.4),the displacement current I,is equal to the rate of increase of charge on the plate ,dΦE=d Ia=8o di di' (13.1.7) which is equal to the conduction current,I.Thus,we conclude that the conduction current that passes through S is precisely equal to the displacement current that passes through S2,namely I=1.With the Ampere-Maxwell law,the ambiguity in choosing the surface bound by the Amperian loop is removed. 13.2 Gauss's Law for Magnetism We have seen that Gauss's law for electrostatics states that the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed(Figure 13.2.1a).The electric field lines originate from the positive charge (source)and terminate at the negative charge (sink).One would then be tempted to write down the magnetic equivalent as Φ。=BadA= (13.2.1) where O is the magnetic charge (magnetic monopole)enclosed by the Gaussian surface S.However,despite intense experimental searches,no isolated magnetic monopole has ever been observed.Hence, Qm=0, (experimentally). (13.2.2) Gauss's law for magnetism becomes 中。=∯BdA=0 (13.2.3) (a) Figure 13.2.1 Gauss's law for (a)electrostatics,and (b)magnetism 13-5
13-5 From Eq. (13.1.4), the displacement current d I is equal to the rate of increase of charge on the plate 0 E d d dQ I dt dt ! " = = , (13.1.7) which is equal to the conduction current, I . Thus, we conclude that the conduction current that passes through 1 S is precisely equal to the displacement current that passes through 2 S , namely d I = I . With the Ampere-Maxwell law, the ambiguity in choosing the surface bound by the Amperian loop is removed. 13.2 Gauss’s Law for Magnetism We have seen that Gauss’s law for electrostatics states that the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed (Figure 13.2.1a). The electric field lines originate from the positive charge (source) and terminate at the negative charge (sink). One would then be tempted to write down the magnetic equivalent as !B = ! B"d ! A S "## = Qm µ0 , (13.2.1) where Qm is the magnetic charge (magnetic monopole) enclosed by the Gaussian surface S . However, despite intense experimental searches, no isolated magnetic monopole has ever been observed. Hence, Qm = 0, (experimentally). (13.2.2) Gauss’s law for magnetism becomes !B = ! B"d ! A S "## = 0 . (13.2.3) (a) (b) Figure 13.2.1 Gauss’s law for (a) electrostatics, and (b) magnetism
This implies that the number of magnetic field lines entering a closed surface is equal to the number of field lines leaving that surface.There is no magnetic source or sink.In addition,the lines must be continuous with no starting or end points.In fact,as shown in Figure 13.2.1(b)for a bar magnet,the field lines that emanate from the north pole to the south pole outside the magnet return within the magnet and form closed loops. 13.3 Maxwell's Equations We now have four equations that form the foundation of electromagnetic phenomena: Law Equation Physical Interpretation Gauss's law for E ∯E.A= Electric flux through a closed surface Eo is proportional to the charge enclosed Faraday's law ∮Ed5=-Φ2 Changing magnetic flux is associated with an electric field Gauss's law for B ∯B=0 The total magnetic flux through a closed surface is zero Ampere-Maxwell law dΦE fB.ds=1+4e。di Electric current and changing electric flux is associated with a magnetic field Collectively they are known as Maxwell's Equations.The above equations may also be written in differential form as V.E=P Eo P×E=-那 (13.3.1) 7.B=0, V×B=4,J+ea where p and J are the free charge and the conduction current densities,respectively.

(13.3.2) An important consequence of Maxwell’s equations, as we shall see below, is the prediction of the existence of electromagnetic waves that travel with the speed of light 0 0 c =1/ µ ! . The reason is due to the fact that a changing electric field is associated with a magnetic field and vice versa, and the coupling between the two fields leads to the generation of electromagnetic waves. In 1887, H. Hertz confirmed this prediction. 13.4 Plane Traveling Electromagnetic Waves To examine the properties of the electromagnetic waves, let’s consider an electromagnetic wave propagating in the +x- direction, with a uniform electric field E ! pointing in the + y- direction and a uniform magnetic field B ! in the +z- direction. At any instant both E ! and B ! are uniform over any yz-plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation. This means that for any value of x , the electric and magnetic fields are the same at all points yz-plane perpendicular to that value of x . The electric and magnetic field are independent of the ( y,z) coordinates. Therefore the electric and magnetic fields are only functions of the (x,t) coordinates, ! E(x,t) = E y (x,t)ˆ j and ! B(x,t) = Bz (x,t)kˆ . Figure 13.4.1 Electric and magnetic fields at a few selected points along the x -axis associated with a plane electromagnetic wave

We show two additional pairs of electric and magnetic vectors representing ! E(x1,ct 1) and ! B(x1,ct 1) on the plane x1 = ct 1 , and ! E(x2 ,ct 2 ) and ! B(x2 ,ct 2 ) on the plane x2 = ct 2 . This (non-physical) electric and magnetic field is called a plane wave because at any instant both E ! and B ! are uniform over any plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation. In addition, the wave is transverse because both fields are perpendicular to the direction of propagation, which points in the direction of the cross product E!B ! ! .
