Presentation transcript:

Example: a radio station on the surface of the earth radiates a sinusoidal wave with an average total power of 50 kW.* Assuming the wave is radiated equally in all directions above the ground, find the amplitude of the electric and magnetic fields detected by a satellite 100 km from the antenna. Station Satellite *In problems like this you need to ask whether the power is radiated into all space or into just part of space. Strategy: we want E max, B max. We are given average power. From average power we can calculate intensity, and from intensity we can calculate E max and B max. From the average power we can calculate intensity, and from intensity we can calculate E max and B max.

Example: a radio station on the surface of the earth radiates a sinusoidal wave with an average total power of 50 kW.* Assuming the wave is radiated equally in all directions above the ground, find the amplitude of the electric and magnetic fields detected by a satellite 100 km from the antenna. R Station Satellite All the radiated power passes through the hemispherical surface* so the average power per unit area (the intensity) is Today’s lecture is brought to you by the letter P. All the radiated power passes through the hemispherical surface* so the average power per unit area (the intensity) is Area=4  R 2 /2 *In problems like this you need to ask whether the power is radiated into all space or into just part of space.

R Station Satellite You could get Bmax from I = c B max 2 /2  0, but that’s a lot more work

Example: for the radio station in the example on the previous two slides, calculate the average energy densities associated with the electric and magnetic field. If you are smart, you will write = = 1.33x J/m 3 and be done with it.
