03

Determine the electric and magnetic fields of an oscillating magnetic dipole and average value of Poynting vector intensity.

The vector potential of an Oscillating magnetic dipole is:

A(r,θ,t)=μ0m04πsinθr1rcosωtrcωcsinωtrcφ^

Here, μ0is permeability of free space, m0is the mass, K is the wave number, Cis the speed of sound, ωis the angular frequency, and t is the time.

Determine theelectric fields of an oscillating magnetic dipole.

Substitute μ0m04πsinθr1rcosωtrcωcsinωtrcφ^ for Ainto equation (1).

E=μ0m04πsinθr1rcosωtrcωcsinωtrcφ^=μ0m04πsinθr1rωsinωtrcω2ccosωtrcϕ^=μ0m0ω4πsinθr1rsinωtrc+ωccosωtrcϕ^

Therefore, the electric fields of an oscillating magnetic dipole is

Determine the magnetic fields of an oscillating magnetic dipole.

Substitute μ0m0ω4πsinθr1rsinωtrc+ωccosωtrcϕ for Ainto equation (2).

×A=1rsinθθ(sinθAϕ)Aθrθr^+1sinθArϕr(rAϕ)ϕ^+1rrrAθ1dArθϕ^

Here, Arand A0are not taken then:

role="math" localid="1658931445531" ×A=1rsinθθ(sinθAϕ)r^1rr(rAϕ)θ^×A=μ0m04π1rsinθθsinθsinθr1rcosωtrcωcsinωtrcr^1rrrsinθr1rcos[ωtrcωcsinωtrc]θ^B=μ0m04π2cosθr21rcosωtrcωcsinωtrcr^sinθr1r2cosωtrc+ωrcsinωtrc+ωc2cosωtrcθ^

In problem 9.33 the result is A=μ0m0ω24πc

Determine the average value of Poynting vector intensity.

Substitute μ0m0ω4πsinθr1rsinωtrc+ωccosωtrc]ϕ^ for Eand

B=μ0m04π2cosθr21rcosωtrcωcsinωtrcr^sinθr1r2cosωtrc+ωrcsinωtrc+ωc2cosωtrc for Binto equation (3).

S=1c(E×B)S=μ0m02ω316π2c2sinθr22cosθr1c2ω2r2sinucosu+cωr(cos2usin2u)θ^+sinθ2r+c2ω2r3sinucosu+ωccos2u+cωr2(sin2ucos2u)r^

Here, u=ωtrc

Then average value of Poynting vector is intensity

S=μ0m02ω432π2c3sin2θr2r^

This is the same radiation intensity that we estimated using approximations.

Therefore, the average value of Poynting vector intensity is <S>=μ0m02ω432π2c3sin2θr2r^ .

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.

An ideal electric dipole is situated at the origin; its dipole moment points in the z direction and is quadratic in time:

p(t)=12p¨0t2z^    (<t<)

wherep¨0is a constant.

  1. Use the method of Section 11.1.2 to determine the (exact) electric and magnetic fields for all r > 0 (there's also a delta-function term at the origin, but we're not concerned with that).
  2. Calculate the power, P(r,t), passing through a sphere of radius r.
  3. Find the total power radiated (Eq. 11.2), and check that your answer is consistent with Eq. 11.60.21

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 (dλh), 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.)

A parallel-plate capacitor C, with plate separation d, is given an initial charge (±)Q0. It is the0n connected to a resistor R, and discharges, Q(t)=Q0e-t/RC.

(a) What fraction of its initial energy(Q02/2C) does it radiate away?

(b) If C=1pF,R=1000Ω,and role="math" localid="1653972749344" d=0.1mm, what is the actual number? In electronics we don’t ordinarily worry about radiative losses; does that seem reasonable, in this case?

Assuming you exclude the runaway solution in Prob. 11.19, calculate

(a) The work done by the external force,

(b) The final kinetic energy (assume the initial kinetic energy was zero),

(c) The total energy radiated.

Check that energy is conserved in this process.
