dE
 B  ds  μo I  εo μo dt Ampere-Maxwell law
•The two Gauss’s laws are symmetrical, apart from the absence of the term for
magnetic monopoles in Gauss’s law for magnetism
•Faraday’s law and the Ampere-Maxwell law are symmetrical in that the line
integrals of E and B around a closed path are related to the rate of change of
the respective fluxes
• Gauss’s law (electrical):
• The total electric flux through any
q
S E  dA  εo
closed surface equals the net charge
inside that surface divided by o
• This relates an electric field to the
charge distribution that creates it

• Gauss’s law (magnetism):

• The total magnetic flux through any
closed surface is zero
• This says the number of field lines
that enter a closed volume must

•
equal the number that leave that
volume  B  dA  0
S
This implies the magnetic field lines
cannot begin or end at any point
• Isolated magnetic monopoles have
not been observed in nature
• Faraday’s law of Induction:
• This describes the creation of an electric field by a
changing magnetic flux
• The law states that the emf, which is the line
integral of the electric field around any closed path, dB
•
equals the rate of change of the magnetic flux
through any surface bounded by that path
One consequence is the current induced in a
 E  ds   dt
conducting loop placed in a time-varying B

• The Ampere-Maxwell law is a generalization of

Ampere’s law

dE
 B  ds  μo I  εo μo dt
• It describes the creation of a magnetic field by an
electric field and electric currents
• The line integral of the magnetic field around any
closed path is the given sum
 The Lorentz Force Law
• Once the electric and magnetic fields are known at
some point in space, the force acting on a particle
of charge q can be calculated
• F = qE + qv x B
• This relationship is called the Lorentz force law
• Maxwell’s equations, together with this force law,
completely describe all classical electromagnetic
interactions

 Hertz’s Experiment
• An induction coil is connected to a
transmitter
• The transmitter consists of two spherical
electrodes separated by a narrow gap
• The discharge between the electrodes
exhibits an oscillatory behavior at a very
high frequency
• Sparks were induced across the gap of the
receiving electrodes when the frequency of
the receiver was adjusted to match that of
the transmitter
• In a series of other experiments, Hertz also
showed that the radiation generated by this
equipment exhibited wave properties
– Interference, diffraction, reflection,
refraction and polarization
• He also measured the speed of the radiation
 Implication
• A magnetic field will be produced in empty space if there
is a changing electric field. (correction to Ampere)
• This magnetic field will be changing. (originally there
was none!)
• The changing magnetic field will produce an electric field.
(Faraday)
• This changes the electric field.
• This produces a new magnetic field.
• This is a change in the magnetic field.

 Angular Dependence of Intensity
• This shows the angular
dependence of the radiation
intensity produced by a dipole
antenna
• The intensity and power
radiated are a maximum in a
plane that is perpendicular to
the antenna and passing
through its midpoint
• The intensity varies as
