A wide, long, insulating belt has a uniform positive charge per unit area σ on its upper surface. Rollers at each end move the belt to the right at a constant speed v. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field produced by the moving belt at a point just above its surface. (Hint: At points near the surface and far from its edges or ends, the moving belt can be considered to be an infinite current sheet like that in Problem 28.73.)
28.73 . An Infinite Current Sheet. Long, straight conductors with square cross sections and each carrying current I are laid side by side to form an infinite current sheet (Fig. P28.73). The conductors lie in the xy-plane, are parallel to the y-axis, and carry current in the +y-direction. There are n conductors per unit length measured along the x-axis. (a) What are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field a distance a below the current sheet? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field a distance a above the current sheet?
