Q5. Consider a Lagrangian for some scalar field φ interacting with electric and magnetic fields in...
how did we get the following equation (1.9) from maxwells equations at e at where p is the density of free charges and j is the density of currents at a point where the electric and magnetic fields are evaluated. The parameters and are constants that determine the property of the vacuum and are called the electric permittivity and magnetic permeability respectively The parameter c-1/olo and its numerical value is equal to the speed of light in vacuum,c 3 x...
Problem 1a: Velocity Selector: Show that with the right ratio of electric to magnetic field strength a particle of velocity v will proceed through both fields in a straight line at constant speed (hint: you will need an equation containing v. Also: what does the straight line at constant speed give you?). Assume that the angle of the velocity vector relative to the magnetic field vector is 90 degrees. (15 points) b: Show mathematically that the charge magnitude and sign...
