... We create forces (electric fields), which in turn cause charges to move (currents). There’s really not much more to it than that. Of course, the details are more involved. In circuits, we generally don’t deal directly with electric fields very often. (From time to time, they pop up in our descriptio ...

... 3. The field at the surface of a charged conductor can be written as ~E patch + ~Eother , as described in lecture. Just outside the conductor ~E patch (+) and ~Eother (+) both have magnitudes σ /(2ε0 ) where σ is the local surface charge density. Calculate directly ~Eother (+) for a uniformly charge ...

... d. If the rod has resistance R and the rails have negligible resistance, find the magnitude and direction of the current i through the loop. Your answer should be expressible in terms of B, L, v and R. The induced current is given by i = /R where R is the resistance of the loop and is the induce ...
