Current Current density Density Electric Intensity Resistance Specific

AI Thread Summary

The relationship between electric intensity E, current density j, and specific resistance k is fundamental in understanding electrical circuits. Electric intensity is proportional to current density, while specific resistance inversely affects current flow. This relationship can be expressed through Ohm's law, which connects these variables in a linear manner. The discussion highlights the need for a comprehensive explanation of these concepts, indicating that the original query lacks sufficient detail. Understanding these relationships is crucial for analyzing electrical systems effectively.

Thread 'Free surface problem in electrohydrodynamics'

I'm thinking about the following problem. I have an electrified fluid with a constant charge density, Q, within the fluid. Will this necessarily yield a surface charge? Would I have to compute it by looking at the displacement fields on either side of the interface? Would it change if the bulk charge within the fluid remains constant?

Thread 'Maxwell stress tensor'

This is from Griffiths' Electrodynamics, 3rd edition, page 352. I am trying to calculate the divergence of the Maxwell stress tensor. The tensor is given as ##T_{ij} =\epsilon_0 (E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} E^2)+\frac 1 {\mu_0}(B_iB_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} B^2)##. To make things easier, I just want to focus on the part with the electrical field, i.e. I want to find the divergence of ##E_{ij}=E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij}E^2##. In matrix form, this tensor should look like this...

Thread 'Applying the Gauss (1835) formula for force between 2 parallel DC currents'

Please can anyone either:- (1) point me to a derivation of the perpendicular force (Fy) between two very long parallel wires carrying steady currents utilising the formula of Gauss for the force F along the line r between 2 charges? Or alternatively (2) point out where I have gone wrong in my method? I am having problems with calculating the direction and magnitude of the force as expected from modern (Biot-Savart-Maxwell-Lorentz) formula. Here is my method and results so far:- This...
