52. Maxwell’s Equations James Clerk Maxwell “…and then there was light.”

53. Properties of E & B fields Coulomb’s law: E-field lines start on + charge & end on – charge Ampere’s law: B-fields are produced by electric currents Faraday’s law: Changing B-fields produce E-fields (un-named law): B-field lines never end

54. In equation form: E-field lines start on +charges & end on - charges B-field lines never end E-fields are produced by changing B fields B-fields are produced by electric currents

55. Maxwell The previous equations, as written, are mathematically inconsistent with the conservation of electric charge. He found he could fix this by adding one more term: B-fields are produced by changing E-fields

56. Maxwell’s equations B-fields are produced by changing E-fields

57. Fields from an electric charge + x E + E Is the change in E instantaneous? Does it occur only after some time? M.E.s can tell us?

58. fun in the bathtub Water level will increase but not instantaneously 1 st waves will propagate from her entrance point to the edge of the tub

59. According to Maxwell’s eqs: + x E + E The change in E is not instantaneous 1 st waves made of E- fields & B-fields propagate thru space.

60.

61. “…let there be light.” Maxwell’s equations have solutions that are waves of oscillating E- & B-fields that travel at the speed of light. Faraday & Maxwell made the immediate (& correct) inference that these waves are, in fact, light waves.
