CHAPTER 1 1 Electromagnetic Waves 11.1. Introduction Atone time, electricity and magnetism were considered as entirely separate subjects. In 1820, Oersted found that an electric current could deflect a magnetic compass needle. Later, Ampere postulated that ‘all magnetic phenomena are due to electric charges in motion.’ Then in 1831, Faraday discovered that ‘a moving magnet generates an electric current.’ Thus it was established that ‘time-varying electric field produces magnetic field and vice versa.’ Thus the time-varying E and B fields depend on each other, and Propagate as a wave (an electromagnetic wave) through free space. Also, electricity and magnetism were found to be interconnected, Maxwell and Lorentz, combining them, coined a new subject called electromagnetism, 11.2 Physical Significance of Gradient, Divergence and Curl These are vector derivatives. There are three ways the operator V can act: On a scalar function 7; V7 (Gradient) On a vector function v: V-v (Divergence) On a vector function v: Vx v (Curl) 11.2.1, Gradient A function of one variable is called a derivative, Whereas a function which depends on three mma is called a gradient. For example, the temperature T(x, y, 2) in a room varies anilly along different directions. It may vary fairly rapidly along the vertical direction and i dually in all the horizontal directions. Actually, how T varies may have infinite possible Teduse. “Pending upon the direction we choose to explore.
