∇·E = ρ/ε0,
∇×E = -∂B/∂t,
∇·B = 0, ∇×B = μ0j + (1/c2)∂E/∂t.
∇×E = -∂B/∂t,
∮Γ E·dr = -∂/∂t∫AB·n
dA.
Define the flux
F = ∫AB·n dA
and the electromotive force
ε = ∮Γ E·dr.
Then ε = -∂F/∂t.
The electromotive force is the work done per unit charge (W/q = ε) if
it is moved once around the loop Γ.
Any induced emf tries to oppose the flux changes that produce it. This is
Lenz's rule.
In the above integral formulas the "loop" Γ can be
any fixed curve in
space, i.e. a loop that does not change its shape.
Consider a well-defined filamentary circuit which can change its
shape. For such circuit we may write
ε = -d/dt∫AB·n dA,
i.e. we can combine the emf due to flux changes and the emf due to shape changes
into one equation. (The partial derivative changes to a total derivative.)
Quasi-static situations refer to non-static situations in which
electromagnetic radiation can be neglected.
Consider N filamentary circuits. Then the flux through the ith circuit is Fi
= ∑j=1N Fij,
where Fij = MijIj (SI units), Fij
= cMijIj (Gaussian units).
Mij = Mji is the coefficient of mutual induction
and
Mii = Li is the coefficient of self inductance. We
have
εi = -∑jMij∂Ij/∂t.
For a single filamentary circuit we have ε = -L∂I/∂t.
To change the current in a circuit we need an external emf, Vext, to
overcome the induced emf ε.
Vext = L∂I/∂t.
The energy stored in the circuit is U = ½LI2. For a system of
N circuits we have
U = ½∑m=1N FmIm, or
U = ½∫all_space j·A dV, or
U = (1/(2μ0))∫all_space B·B dV.
