AI Thread Summary
To solve the magnetic problem involving the Maxwell equation, start by integrating the equation del x H = J and applying Stokes' theorem. This will yield an equivalent integral form that includes a line integral of H around a closed rectangular loop. The right side of the equation will represent the total current flowing through the loop, which is related to the surface current density K. By carefully setting up this relationship, the boundary condition nx(H2-H1) = K can be demonstrated. This approach effectively connects the magnetic field differences across the boundary to the surface current density.

Hi, I'm very lost in this problem, anyone can help me?
The problem is this:

In steady state the magnetic field H satisifes the Maxwell equation delxH=J , where J is the current density (per square meter). At the boundary between two media there is a surface current density K (perimeter). Show that a boundary contidion on H is
nx(H2-H1)=K.
n is a unit vector normal to the surface and out of medium 1.
Hint: consider a narrow loop perpendicular to the interface as shown in the figure. (The figure is attached).

Note: del x H is the curl of H.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

The hint is a good one.

First integrate and then apply Stokes theorem to your curl H = J equation to get the equivalent integral form. You will have a line integral of H around a closed curve, which you should make your rectangular loop. The other side of the equation will have the total current flowing through the loop, which is related to K. Set this up carefully, and you will have the result you want.
 
Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'
So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
