11 Physics 201 p. 8/3 Maxwell s contribution Recall Faraday s law of induction: changing magnetic flux electric field that changes with time Can a magnetic field be created by a changing electric flux? Maxwell: Ampere s law is good only for a continuous current. What happens between the two plates of a capacitor? If one were to measure the magnetic field around the gap, one would find out that the magnetic field is non-zero! But where is the current between the gap?
12 Physics 201 p. 9/3 Maxwell s contribution Gauss law: EA = q/ɛ 0 q = ɛ 0 AE I = q t = ɛ 0A E t
13 Physics 201 p. 9/3 Maxwell s contribution Gauss law: EA = q/ɛ 0 q = ɛ 0 AE I = q t = ɛ 0A E t There is a uniform electric field between the plates and assume the surface area of each plate is A. The electric flux through an area A is Φ E = EA.
14 Physics 201 p. 10/3 Maxwell s contribution Maxwell: Imagine a fictitious current which he called a displacement current: Φ I d = ɛ E 0 t = ɛ 0 A E t = I. Add that displacement current to the right-hand-side of Ampere s law changing electric field magnetic field that changes with time. That s Maxwell s contribution Maxwell s equations. Why is it so important?

19 Physics 201 p. 12/3 What is the electromagnetic spectru Accelerating charges Radiation. Like any wave, there is a relationship between the speed of the wave and the frequency and wavelength. Here v = c in vacuum. c = fλ High frequency Short wavelength and vice versa.
20 Physics 201 p. 13/3 Spectrum Radio waves: λ 10 4 m 0.1m. Generated by electronic devices like an LC oscillator. Used in radio and television communication systems. AM radio waves have λ 10 4 m while FM radio waves have λ few m. Easier to diffract long wave lengths than short ones AM waves can bend around buildings much more easily than FM waves.
21 Physics 201 p. 13/3 Spectrum Radio waves: λ 10 4 m 0.1m. Generated by electronic devices like an LC oscillator. Used in radio and television communication systems. AM radio waves have λ 10 4 m while FM radio waves have λ few m. Easier to diffract long wave lengths than short ones AM waves can bend around buildings much more easily than FM waves. Microwaves: λ 0.5m 10 4 m. Generated by electronic devices. Short wavelenghts. Suited for radars, atomic and molecular studies, etc... Microwave oven: λ = 0.122m.
22 Physics 201 p. 14/3 Spectrum Infrared waves: λ 10 3 m m. Generated by molecules and room-temperature objects. Readily absorbed by many materials. Applications: physical therapy, vibrational spectroscopy, etc.
23 Physics 201 p. 14/3 Spectrum Infrared waves: λ 10 3 m m. Generated by molecules and room-temperature objects. Readily absorbed by many materials. Applications: physical therapy, vibrational spectroscopy, etc. Visible light: λ = m (red) to λ m (violet). Maximum sensitivity of human eye at λ = m (yellow-green) Color of tennis balls.
24 Spectrum Ultraviolet waves: λ m m. Sun: big source of UV light sunburn. Sun screen: the higher the number the better the blocking of UV light becomes. Danger of cheap sun glasses: They do not block UV light and since the pupils are dilated there is more of UV light striking the lenses potential damage. Better not having those sun glasses because at bright sun light, the pupils are contracted less UV light striking the lenses. Most of UV light from the sun is absorbed by the ozone (O 3 ) layer. Very important layer in Physics 201 p. 15/3
