What happens when the source accelerates?

Let’s consider the case where a source initially at rest experiences a force in the +x direction.

Radiation

•Acceleration fields are also called “electromagnetic radiation.”

•Many kinds of electromagnetic radiation are due to oscillating sources.

Radiation

•Many kinds of electromagnetic radiation are due to oscillating sources.

•When sources oscillate, the direction of the fields oscillate, but remain perpendicular to .

•Let’s look at animations of the electric fields of accelerating charges.

Page 25: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Stationary Source

•The electric field of a stationary charge. We “turn the field on” at t = 0 and it propagates outward at the speed of light.

Page 26: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Velocity Field

•The electric field of a charge moving to the right at 70% of the speed of light. The field lines lie along the ray lines. Note how they bunch up the plane perpendicular to the motion. In what direction is the magnetic field?

Page 27: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Velocity Field

•The electric field of a charge moving to the right at 95% of the speed of light. Now the source almost catches up with the emitted threads. http://www.physics.byu.edu/faculty/rees/220/java/Rad3/classes/Rad3.htm

Page 28: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Acceleration Field

This time the charge is initially at rest. It accelerates to the right for a time and then continues at constant speed.

Page 29: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Acceleration Field

•Now let’s look at the field lines for this same acceleration. The dogleg in the field line is the acceleration field, or the radiation. Also note that the field lines are closer together in the dogleg region.

Page 30: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Acceleration Field

•We can understand these fields by comparing the threads emitted before acceleration and after acceleration.

Before After

Acceleration Field

•Now join the two sets of lines together without creating or destroying any field lines:

Page 32: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Acceleration Field

•Radiation – or the acceleration field – is the region where the doglegs join the two sets of lines.

Page 33: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Field Pulse from Acceleration

•The charge is again initially at rest. It accelerates to the right, remains at constant speed momentarily, then accelerates to the left until it comes to rest again. Note that this makes a square pulse in otherwise straight field lines.

Page 34: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Field of an Oscillating Source

•Now the charge oscillates along the x-axis, so it alternately accelerates to the right and to the left. Let’s first look at the field lines:

Page 35: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Class 30Today we will:•learn how accelerating charges affect circuits in significance ways•learn about induced electric fields•learn about induced magnetic fields and displacement current•learn Faraday’s Law•learn Maxwell’s Term of Ampere’s Law

Page 36: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Acceleration and Circuits

Circuits are affected by acceleration in two ways:

•From radiation – the part of the field that is proportional to acceleration.

•From retardation – the effects of finite propagation time on the velocity fields.

First, we’ll look at radiation ---

What We’re Going to Do

•To find quantitative results, we would have to slice sources into small regions and integrate over source distributions as we did in Chapter 8. (Except we have to be very careful about the time threads are emitted – these are the retardation effects!)

•Instead, we are going to qualitatively describe the radiation fields that are produced. For this, we’re mostly interested in directions: aRREa

The General Plan

•Find the part of the charge or current distribution that contributes most strongly to the fields at a point P.

•Find the direction of the electric and/or the magnetic field at P.

•Make flagrant generalizations.

•In a long, cylindrical wire, current travels to the right. Current is increasing in time.

• When current increases, positive charge carriers experience an acceleration in the direction of the current.

Acceleration and Circuits

•From radiation – the part of the field that is proportional to acceleration.

•From retardation – the effects of finite propagation time on the velocity fields.

Now, we’ll quickly look at retardation ---

The Curl of the Magnetic Field

•Magnetic fields are caused by a current. At a point in space where looping magnetic fields are formed, we found that the curl was proportional to the current density:

Page 62: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

The Curl of the Electric Field

•At a point in space where the electric field loops are formed, the only thing present is the magnetic field of the wire.

•The magnetic field itself isn’t the source of looping electric fields, as constant magnetic fields don’t produce any electric fields.

• The source is not the magnetic field, but the change in the magnetic field:

This says the line integral of the electric field around an Amperian loop is minus the time derivative of the magnetic flux through the Amperian loop.

Faraday’s Law

In other words:

If the number of magnetic field lines through a loop is changing, we produce a looping electric field.

A Charging Capacitor

•By integrating all the magnetic fields produced by the current in the capacitor plates, we find there are magnetic field lines going around in circles inside the capacitor, just as if real current were passing between the capacitor plates.

Page 77: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Displacement Current

•No real charges pass between the plates of the capacitor, but we say that “displacement current” between the plates of the capacitor causes the magnetic field.

Page 78: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Displacement Current

•The only “real” thing between the plates is an electric field.

•But a constant electric field can’t cause the displacement current, because there is no magnetic field between the capacitor plates when the plates are fully charged.

Page 79: Lesson 10 The Fields of Accelerating Charges. Class 29 Today we will: learn about threads and stubs of accelerating point charges. learn that accelerating

Displacement Current

•We might guess that the displacement current is related to a changing electric field.

•Guided by Faraday’s Law, we might expect:

Ampere’s Law

In other words:

If either 1) a current is passing through a loop or 2) the net number of electric field lines passing through a loop is changing, we produce a looping magnetic field.
