Induced Electric Field

by Notetube Official77 words4 views

A changing magnetic field induces an electric field even in empty space (no conductor needed). This induced electric field is non-conservative — its field lines form closed loops (unlike the conservative electrostatic field). Faraday's law in terms of induced EE: Edl=dΦBdt\oint \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{l} = -\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}. For a solenoid with changing BB: inside (r<Rr < R), E=rdB2dtE = r\frac{dB}{2dt}; outside (r>Rr > R), E=R22rdBdtE = \frac{R^2}{2r}\frac{dB}{dt}. This is Maxwell's contribution connecting changing magnetic fields to electric fields.
