More than likely I would say. Well spotted old bean - although since you're only a nipper of 59 perhaps that should be young beene. <g> And as Tony Blair is wont to say at PMQs (Prime Minister's Question time). "I refer you to the answer I gave a moment ago." ================================================================= LOOPY FIELD LINES Grimer Mon, 13 Jun 2005 23:44:25 -0700 There are certain advantages is being a quasi modo in the cathedral of EM. One can rush in and utter terrible heresies in all innocence. I have been recently going through a rather comprehensive site on EM, to wit:- http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teaching/302l/lectures/lectures.html and I find that my recognition on general grounds that the field lines around a conductor form a tight spiral and not a series of closed loops is anathema as far as "Gauss' law for magnetic fields" is concerned since, -------------------------------------------------------- An immediate corollary of the above law [i.e.Gauss' Law] is that the number of magnetic field lines which enter a closed surface is always equal to the number of field lines which leave the surface. In other words: Magnetic field lines form closed loops which never begin or end. Thus, magnetic field lines behave in a quite different manner to electric field lines, which begin on positive charges, end on negative charges, and never form closed loops. -------------------------------------------------------- I suppose being a heretic would be more fun if I had ever been baptised in the EM church - but then perhaps I would have never seen the looniness of loops. I now realise why the hierarchical identity between a coil and a capacitor has never been recognised in physical terms. I shall have to try and reconstruct the diagram I drew many years ago but never actually incorporated into any Internal Note. ================================================================= Cheers, Grimer
