I know the ampere's law but I want an explanation on why it exist in that way, consider a wire where flows current, i know that when an observer is in relative motion to the current there is a magnetic field but why in this geometric configuration and not in another? What about the electric...
This isn't a homework problem, I have the solutions for this problem. I'm just wondering why, for question 3, letter a, part ii, it's necessary to use the Biot-Savart law instead of Ampere's law? What are the use cases for Biot-Savart law vs. Ampere's law...
The most common proof that I have found of the fact that Ampère's law is entailed by the Biot-Savart law essentially uses the fact that, if ##\boldsymbol{J}:\mathbb{R}^3\to\mathbb{R}^3##, ##\boldsymbol{J}\in C_c^2(\mathbb{R}^3)##, is a compactly supported twice continuously differentiable field...
Mathematically, what conditions must a B-field that obeys the Biot-Savart Law satisfy before it will obey Ampere's Law?
Additionally, what conditions must the B-field obey in order to satisfy Faraday's Law?
Most of the problems I've worked on involve wires of small radii, however, if DC current flows within large radii of conductive wires, would I need to use current density ##J## for calculating the magnetic field at a point ## r > R## instead of ##I## if it we're known?
With relevance to a wires...

Hi, friends! I have been struggling to understand the only derivation of Ampère's law from the Biot-Savart law for a tridimensional distribution of current that I have been able to find, i.e. Wikipedia's outline of proof, for more than a month with no result. I have also been looking for a proof...
I have a doubt about Ampère's that keeps me awake at night haha, but I think that for a more knowledgeable person it may seem pretty obvious. I've seen in several books that, in a coaxial cable with equal and opposed currents in the core and shield, the magnetic field outside the outer conductor...

Is it possible to find the magnetic field on the axis above a current loop using Ampere's law? I was thinking you could treat an infinitesimal piece of the loop as a straight wire and draw a circle around it with radius sqrt(a^2 + z^2), with a=radius of current loop and z=position of point of...

Hello,
This is a multi-part problem but I am stuck on just the third part, but I am a little confused in general with Ampere's Law. I know that the equation is mu_0*Ienc=Integral of B dl, but this problem really confused me.

Imagine a thin metal wire. We measure the curl at some distance from the wire and from the Biot-Savart law we know that it is not zero.
However, as this point is at some distance from the wire, the current density at that point is definitely zero.

If we integrate the magnetic field from the Biot-Savart law for an infinitely long straight wire, we can get ##|B|=\frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi R}## with R being the shortest distance from the wire to the point in space.
If we use Ampere's law (with a circle of radius R centered on a wire with the...
If magnetic charge exists, it can flow.
Would the flow of magnetic charge produce a current that would be a source for the curl of B, in Ampere's law?

Usually in textbooks Ampere's law is just illustrated using 2D loops which forms a plane. Can the law be applied to 3D loops which cannot form a plane surface within the loop?

Sorry to bother you guys,
I've heard that Ampere's Law is either ineffective for calculating the B field due to a circular loop or needs some modification (I wasn't sure which).
I'm trying to figure out why this doesn't work so I can get a better understanding of Ampere's...
First, some background. In Faraday's law the reluctance/resistance by "mother nature" to changing the magnetic flux is explicitly recognized by the "-" sign (commonly referred to as Lenz's law), i.e. if the time rate of change of the magnetic flux is positive, an emf is induced so as to oppose...
I know that \oint \vec E \cdot \vec{dS} in Gauss Law indicates electric flux.

The closed line integral of the B field equals m*I where m is permeability and I is the current enclosed.
Does this mean amperes law only holds for infinitesimal current elements (or a moving charge?) Because how else can a current be "enclosed"?
