1 (a) Maxwell postulated that a changing electric field is equivalent to a current, which flows as long as the electric field is changing. This equivalent current produces the same magnetic effect as an ordinary current in a conductor. This equivalent current is known as displacement current. In electromagnetism, displacement current is a quantity appearing in Maxwell's equations that is defined in terms of the rate of change of
electric displacement field. Displacement current has the units of
electric current density, and it has an associated magnetic field just as actual currents do.
The magnitude of displacement current is given by,

2 (A) A and φ potential fields
Introducing the electric potentialφ (a scalar potential) and the magnetic potential A (a vector potential) defined from the E and B fields by:
the four Maxwell's equations in a vacuum with charge ρ and current J sources reduce to two equations, Gauss' law for electricity is:
and the Ampère-Maxwell law is:
The source terms are now much simpler, but the wave terms are less obvious. Since the potentials are not unique, but have
gauge freedom, these equations can be simplified by gauge fixing. A common choice is the Lorenz gauge condition:
Then the nonhomogeneous wave equations become uncoupled and symmetric in the potentials:
For reference, in cgs units these equations are
with the Lorenz gauge condition
2 (B) Poynting theorem: Electric and magnetic fields store energy. This, energy can also be carried by the electromagnetic waves, which consist of both fields. The rate of flow of energy per unit area in a plane electromagnetic wave can be described by a vector S, called the Poynting vector, which is represented by

This theorem states that the work done on the charge by an electromagnetic force is equal to the decrease in energy stored in the field, less than the energy, which flowed out through the surface. It is also called the energy conservation law in electrodynamics.

The curl equation for H has two source terms, the conduction current and the displacement current. So far we have only considered the displacement current, which makes travelling electromagnetic waves possible. It is easy to include the conduction current if we assume a plane sinusoidal wave. Then Maxwell's equations become algebraic equations, and we can find a wave equation just as we did above, but now there are new terms. The dispersion relationbecomes k2 = ω2κμ/c2 + j(4πμσω/c2). What happens is that k becomes complex, k = k' + jk", so that when we put this in the wave expression, we find e-k"zej(ωt - k'z), so that k" represents an exponential absorption of the wave, while k' gives the usual wavelength.
The dispersion relation yields (k')2 - (k")2 = ω2κμ/c2 and k'k" = 2πμσω/c2 = (1/δ2) when we equate real and imaginary parts. The new parameter δ, with the dimensions of cm, is called the skin depth, a name we shall soon justify. If v/ω = λ/2π, and r = (λ/2π)/δ, then (k')2
= (2π/&lambda)2[√(1 + r2) + 1]/2 and k" = (2π/λ)2[√(1 + r2) - 1]/2. Note that λ is not quite the wavelength, except when r = 0. Everything depends on the ratio r, which is the ratio of λ/2π to the skin depth. If r is small, then λ is the actual wavelength, and k" = (2π/λ)(r/2). This is the case of weak damping.
On the other hand, if r is large, then k' = k" = 1/δ. This means the amplitude absorption is e-z/δ
, so the wave will be absorbed almost completely in the distance of a few skin depths. In this case, the conduction current completely dominates the total current, and the fields diffuse into the material, like heat. This is the case with metals at low and moderate frequencies. Multiply the conductivity in S/m by 9 x 109 to find the conductivity in esu. The conductivity of copper is 5.80 x 107 S/m, or 5.22 x 1017 esu. This makes δ = 6.61ν-1/2 cm. At 60 Hz, the skin depth is 0.85 cm. At 1 MHz, it is 66 μm.
3(B) We consider the conditions under which EM waves can propagate when confined to the interior of some kind of “hollow” pipe – also known as a wave guide. We consider first the simplest type of a wave guide – a perfect conductor (ρ=1/σ=0) such that inside the walls of the perfect conductor: 𝐸 = 0 &𝐵 = 0
The boundary conditions at the inner walls of a perfect conductor are: 𝐸 𝐶 . 𝑑𝑙 = − 𝐵𝑆 . 𝑑𝑎 = 0 (1) ⇒Tangential 𝐸 continuous: E = 0 𝐵𝑆 . 𝑑𝑎 = 0 (2) ⇒Normal B continuous: B⊥=0
We are interested in/seek monochromatic/single-frequency plane traveling wave-type solutions - that propagate down the inside of the wave guide, e.g. in the +zˆ direction.
Using phasors& assuming waveguide filled with (i) lossless dielectric material and (ii) walls of perfect conductor, the wave inside should obey…

From Faraday and Ampere Laws we can find the remaining four components:
So once we know Ezand Hz, we can find all the other fields. TM Mode
Boundary conditions: From these, we conclude:
X(x) is in the form of sin kxx, where kx=mp/a, m=1,2,3,…
