Abstract
So far we have been able to consider electric fields and magnetic fields separately, through imposing the conditions that these fields and any currents shall be in steady states with ∂ E/∂t,∂ B/∂t and ∂ j/∂t all zero. In this chapter we move from steady currents to varying currents, from steady electric fields to induced electric fields, from stationary to moving circuits. Electric and magnetic effects become intimately connected in the study of electromagnetism, which has already been introduced in the electromagnetic force equation (4.9) as
We first develop the concepts contained in Faraday’s law and then apply it to a variety of examples.
