Q: As a model for electric quadrupole radiation, consider two oppositely oriented

As a model for electric quadrupole radiation, consider two oppositely oriented oscillating electric dipoles, separated by a distance d, as shown in Fig. 11.19. Use the results of Sect. 11.1.2 for the...

Q: As you know, the magnetic north pole of the earth does

As you know, the magnetic north pole of the earth does not coincide with the geographic north pole—in fact, it’s off by about 11◦. Relative to the fixed axis of rotation, therefore, the magnetic dipole...

Q: In Section 11.2.1 we calculated the energy per

In Section 11.2.1 we calculated the energy per unit time radiated by a (nonrelativistic) point charge—the Larmor formula. In the same spirit: (a) Calculate the momentum per unit time...

Q: Use the duality transformation (Prob. 7.64) to

Use the duality transformation (Prob. 7.64) to construct the electric and magnetic fields of a magnetic monopole qm in arbitrary motion, and find the “Larmor formula” for the power radiated.23

Q: Find the radiation resistance of the wire joining the two ends of

Find the radiation resistance of the wire joining the two ends of the dipole. (This is the resistance that would give the same average power loss—to heat—as the oscillating dipole in fact puts out in...
