Question
The previous two exercises involved currents that are produced in conductors as a result of Faraday's law and they are given the name "eddy currents." If they arise from a time varying induction, it is possible to obtain a differential equation describing their properties. Begin by combining (17-10) and (12-25), and then by applying (1-120) show that, for steady currents, the eddy currents satisfy the equation $\nabla^{2} \mathbf{J}_{f}=$ $\sigma \mu_{0}\left(\partial \mathbf{J}_{f} / \partial t\right)$.Show more…
Instant Answer
Step 1
Step 1: Combine (17-10) and (12-25) (17-10) is Faraday's law in differential form: $\nabla \times \mathbf{E} = -\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t}$ (12-25) is Ohm's law in differential form: $\mathbf{E} = \frac{1}{\sigma} \mathbf{J}_{f}$ We can substitute Show more…
