This document presents solutions to problems related to current density, induced electromotive force (emf), and the equation of continuity in the context of electromagnetic theory. It includes calculations for current density in different scenarios and demonstrates how the equation of continuity is derived from Maxwell's equations. The document serves as a lecture note for a physics course at SRM Institute of Science and Technology.

Solving Problems

18PYB101J Module-I Lecture-10


1. Determine the current density when 40 Amperes of current is flowing through the
battery in a given area of 10 m2.

Solution:
It is given that,
I = 40 A,
Area = 10 m2
The current density formula is given by,
J=I/A
J = 40 / 10
J = 4 A/m2.

2. A 5 mm2 copper wire has a current of 5 mA of current flowing through it. Determine
the current density.

Solution

Given:

Total Current I is 5 mA

Total Area A is 5 mm2

The Current density J = I / A

J = 5×10−3 / 5×10−6

J = 1 000A/m2

3. The magnetic flux through the loop is ΦB = 6t2 + 7t, where ΦB is in milli webers and t
is in seconds. What is the magnitude of the emf induced in the loop when t = 2.0 s?
Solution
Given:
ΦB = 6t2 + 7t
t = 2.0 s
Induced emf e = -dΦ/dt
e = d/dt(6t2 + 7t)
e = -(12t+7) mWb/s
At t = 2s
e = -{(12×2)+7} mWb/s
e = -31× 10-3 (Wb/s) V

4. Show the equation of continuity div J + dρ/dt = 0 is contained in Maxwell’s
equation.
According to Maxwell’s fourth equation,
Curl H = J+dD/dt
Taking divergence on both sides
div (curl H)=div (J+dD/dt)
div (curl H)=0
div (J+dD/dt) = 0 or
divJ+ d/dt(divD)=0
From Maxwell’s first equation
divD = ρ,
Where ρ is the surface charge density.
divJ +dρ/dt = 0
