... and Morley looked and looked, and decided it wasn’t there. How do waves travel??? Electricity and magnetism are “relative”: Whether charges move or not depends on which frame we use… This was how Einstein began thinking about his “theory of special relativity”… We’ll leave that theory for later. ...

... 1. For the condition of locality to hold, the electron mean free path to be less than the penetration depth. What limit does this place on the frequency (in Hz) of the field variation for a metal such as gold if the quasistatic approximation is to be valid? What is the shortest wavelength? 2. Show t ...

Magnetic Field and High-Voltage Power Lines
... Transmission lines carry the electric energy generated by power stations to cities, where the people live. In general, the current in these transmission lines is not direct, that is, it does not flow in just one direction; the current is alternating at a frequency of 60 Hz. That means that the curre ...

Magnetic Induction
... When an electric current flows in a circuit it produces a magnetic field. Another way of saying that is “a moving charge generates a magnetic field”. Michael Faraday reversed the process. By passing a magnet through a coil, he produced a voltage. Another way of saying that is “a moving magnetic fiel ...
