Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. The

wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. The conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε.
(a) Find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor.

(b) Write the Maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor.

(c) Find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value.

(d) Find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) Find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).

It will move towards a point  with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:

⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)

As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.

Relative motion can best be defined as B<span> the motion of one object as it appears to another object.
An example is when you are in a car the car has the actual motion because it is the one moving but you are also moving because of relative motion.</span>
