Ampere’s Law EB

B∫ • dl = μ0I

Look at charge flowing into a capacitor

Here I is the current piercing the flat surface spanning the loop.

Page 6: Maxwell’s Equations Chapter 32, Sections 9, 10, 11 Maxwell’s Equations Electromagnetic Waves Chapter 34, Sections 1,2,3

E

Ampere’s Law

For an infinite wire you can deform the surface and I still pierces it. But something goes wrong here if the loop encloses one plate of the capacitor; in this case the piercing current is zero.

B

Side view: (Surface is now like a bag:)

EB

B∫ • dl = μ0I

Look at charge flowing into a capacitor

Here I is the current piercing the flat surface spanning the loop.

Page 7: Maxwell’s Equations Chapter 32, Sections 9, 10, 11 Maxwell’s Equations Electromagnetic Waves Chapter 34, Sections 1,2,3

E

It must still be the case that B around the little loop satisfies

where I is the current in the wire. But that current does not pierce the surface.

B

EB

B∫ • dl = μ0I

Look at charge flowing into a capacitor

What does pierce the surface? Electric flux - and that flux is increasing in time.

Look at charge flowing into a capacitor

Thus the steady current in the wire produces a steadily increasing electric flux. For the sac-like surface we can write Ampere’s law equivalently as

B∫ • dl = μ0ε0

EB

Look at charge flowing into a capacitor

The best way to write this result is

Then whether the capping surface is the flat (pierced by I) or the sac (pierced by electric flux) you get the same answer for B around the circular loop.

B∫ • dl = μ0I + μ0ε0

dΦE

B∫ • dl = μ0I + μ0ε0

Maxwell-Ampere Law

This result is Maxwell’s modification of Ampere’s law:

B∫ • dl = μ0I + μ0ε0

dΦE

dt

B∫ • dl = μ0I + μ0ε0

dΦE

dt

Can rewrite this by defining the displacement current (not really a current) as

Id = ε0

dΦE

dtThen

B∫ • dl = μ0(I + Id )

EB

Maxwell-Ampere Law

This turns out to be more than a careful way to take care of a strange choice of capping surface. It predicts a new result:

A changing electric field induces a magnetic field

This is easy to see: just apply the new version of Ampere’s law to a loop between the capacitor plates with a flat capping surface:

These are as symmetric as can be between electric and magnetic fields – given that there are no magnetic charges.

This is the same as the time-zero function, slide to the right a distance (/k)t.
