List of equations in tableeditFor future reference and editing:
Removing discussion about dimensional analysiseditComplicated calculations should always begin with an effort to reduce the number equations and symbols involved. We begin with the six expressions shown the table. Electric conductivity, , appears in the expression,
where is the exponential damping rate, which is measured in inverse-seconds. One reason to deemphasize is that it is not expressed in one of the seven SI base units. We remove from the force equation as follows:
where,
is the Poynting vector. While it may seem more natural to express the force density in terms of current and magnetic field, as , the bother of trying to remember in (2) as some constant time conductivity, is rewarded by the simplicity of verifying that the units check. Using the textbooks notation, we use square brackets to denote dimensions, with denoting (length, mass, time.) To obtain the dimensions of the LHS of (2), use the fact that force density, , is force, , per unit volume:
Turning our attention to the RHS of (2), we first note that . The Poynting vector vector, equals the electromagnetic power that flows through a unit area. Energy, , has the same units as work (force X distance) and, power, , is the time derivative of energy. Therefore:
We shall soon see that with (4), the variable for conductivity can be effectively removed from consideration. Put this somewhere in an introductioneditIt is not customary to model a transverse electromagnetic wave in a conductor using a real-valued wavenumber and a complex angular frequency. Usually the wave is usually created the system with a real frequency and calculating the decay with respect to distance into the medium, as shown in the figure. The driving (real-valued) frequency might be created by microwaves or an ac voltage source. We adopt this unorthodox model because the mathematical solution was stated in OpenStax Physics as the solution to the damped harmonic oscillator.
