Simple electricity, and yet.....! |
Consider an ideal metallic conductor, connected,
in a closed electrical circuit, to a non-ideal DC
power source.
E=0 inside the conductor; E and B are perpendicular
to the conductor outside the conductor and at its surface too.
What is, then, causing the electrical current through
the conductor? What is pushing the electrons along
the conductor?

Whoa! Where did you get that idea?
Consider a vacuum tube such as a TV, connected,
in a closed electrical circuit, to a non-ideal DC
power source such as voltage tripler.
E=26,000 V at one end of the vacuum and E = -5V at the other end.
E and B are perpendicular to each other inside the vacuum.
What is, then, causing the electrical current through
the vacuum? What is pushing the electrons along the beam?
Why is the grid voltage zero and stopping them dead ?
Why does the cathode have a fluctuating voltage?

If the resistance of the load is zero, you are dealing with a constant
current source not a voltage source. It is no different than shorting
the battery: the full voltage across the internal R, forces I = V/R.
If you happen to supply an equivalent connection to the negative
terminal it msut carry the same current as V/R.
You were pleased to see that the shorted battery obeyed Ohm's law and
should not be surprised to see your shorting wire is carrying that
current.
Your reference to Poynting's vector is misplaced I believe because PV
should be restricted to waves in space. You should be able to see that
you are delivering zero power to the wire: it's all going into heating
the battery.
The battery is both a ready source of electrons and at the other
terminal a ready receptor for electrons. You are simply facilitating
the transfer.

I didn't see you asking about the power into the resistor before; you

The entire loop possesses an irreducible inductance L, making a
circuit with a time constant of T = L/R seconds. There will be an
initial buildup of energy as the current rises by V/R*(1-exp t/T) and
that energy will be present in the drift momentum of all the
electrons.
During the transient, there will be fleeting voltage V/R*exp t/T
across the inductance of the wire. The free transportation of which
you are suspicious is simply constancy of momentum.

OK.
Let's consider a different situation.
Let be 2 electrically charged metallic bodies separated in vacuum.
If there is a free charge-holder between the two bodies, initially
at rest, its further movement (if no other influences occur) will
be along a line of the electric field of the considered bodies.
Traditionally, we attribute the quality of being a form of matter
to the
electrical field and as such we understand who/what is
exerting the action/force on the charge-holder in this case.
(and of course we do not ask other questions with no clear
answers until now, as the ones referring to the relation between
aether, vacuum, electric field, magnetic field etc)
In the other example considered earlier, you say that
the source is doing this. Yes, but how?
( Constancy of momentum?, yes, but this momentum
has to be obtained from somewhere.)
The same way one could say that the 2 charged bodies
are accelerating the above considered mobile charge-holder,
which is kind of inaccurate.
Sure, again, traditionally we were talking about electromotive
force and let the calculations do the rest.
Form a practical point of view, this is good enough.
Not for me right now as I am trying to dig a little bit deeper.
I think that the Poynting vector shows something deep
and troubling concerning electromagnetism.
Namely, whenever energy transport occurs involving electric or
magnetic fields, both E and B (or H) are present !
I am trying to figure out if and how can/could this happen!
I have some ideas, partially disclosed in other threads
(like the one referring to the nature of the vacuum) and
I am playing with them while gathering information.
I am glad that I could find folks interested
enough and polite enough to have decent exchange of
ideas in this group! ( The others......do not matter!)
All the best, LL

and troubling concerning electromagnetism.
Namely, whenever energy transport occurs involving electric or
magnetic fields, both E and B (or H) are present !
I am trying to figure out if and how can/could this happen!
The Poynting vector is only present for the brief moment of the
transients I described above namely Vexp(-t/T) which would be the
power input to get the electrons moving. Incidentally V = L di/dt =
Ndphi/dt, where phi is the flux, phi = H*mu0.
E and H are always present together (in empty space and always in the
numerical ratio Z) because one causes the other (and back again). You
will find that empty space has an impedance of Z = 377 ohms and that
H = E/Z or
H ampturns/meter = Evoltspermeter/Z ohms.
E causes H via a tensor Z (that I can't quite get to work). Curl H =
dD/dt = eps0dE/dt.

For your information, if you are studying the vacuu;m using the cgs
system, switch to SI, because you will never learn anything about the
vacuum. It was all written off when the Visigoths dumped eps0 by
implanting it (4pieps0) into the coulomb charge, which thereafter was
never a coulomb again, becoming instead an "electrostatic unit" whose
denomination is in volt-meters. Stick to the SI units.

For a PEC, yes, E=0 inside. In your example, E=0 outside as well (what
about B?). The current in the circuit is limited by the internal
resistance of the power supply - the voltage drop due to the current and
the internal resistance is equal to the open-circuit voltage of the
supply. so there is no potential difference across the two terminals, and
hence E=0 outside the power supply. Since there is a current in the
resistive power supply, there's an electric field in there. When the
electron exits the -ve terminal, it's still moving, and enters the wire,
where nothing impedes its motion.
Thus, you can assume that the current in the wire is ballistic motion of
the electrons spat out by the power supply.
PEC is an idealisation; so what if predictions made using it don't always
match reality - as long as you know how far you can push the idealisation,
all is well. Instead of beginning with a PEC conductor, start with a
finite conductivity, and see what happends when conductivity -> infinity.
Does this give you behaviour approximating a superconductor? Or is that
better described as a perfect magnetic conductor (PMC)? There was a paper
in J. Electromag. Waves and Applications, 2005, vol 19(7) by Lindell &
Sihvola about PEMC media; if you can cope a heavy dose of differential
forms, it might be of interest.

If E is zero everywhere inside the conductor, including where
it attaches to the source, then grad V is also zero. That is, there
is no voltage difference across the conductor and no current.
On the other hand, if you claim there is indeed a different
voltage at the two ends of the conductor, then obviously
E is not 0 everywhere.
Your initial conditions violate E = - grad V.

Sorry, you are wrong!
In a simple DC circuit where e= I(R+r), if you have R=0
you still get I= e/r , where r is the internal resistance/ impedance
of the DC source and "e" is the open circuit voltage of the source.
As such you can have current through a conductor even if there

voltage across the internal resistance of the source, just the same
as if the internal resistance were external and connected with ideal
wire.

Why would you expect that?
The problem is no different than what happens if you drop a big
screwdriver across the terminals of a real power supply.

If E is zero everywhere inside the conductor, including where
it attaches to the source, then grad V is also zero. That is, there
is no voltage difference across the conductor and no current.
Sorry, you are wrong!
In a simple DC circuit where e= I(R+r), if you have R=0
you still get I= e/r , where r is the internal resistance/ impedance
of the DC source and "e" is the open circuit voltage of the source.
As such you can have current through a conductor even if there
is no voltage difference across it!
On the other hand, if you claim there is indeed a different
voltage at the two ends of the conductor, then obviously
E is not 0 everywhere.
Your initial conditions violate E = - grad V.

I would reconsider the answer to the question in
your place now.

That's true.
Yet, still we did not answered the question.
If there is no electric field line(s) along the conductor or a
Lorentz force exerted INSIDE the conductor,
then how come that the electrons are drifting along the conductor ?
In order to sharpen the question, I have considered the case of
a zero resistance conductor.
In my opinion, it needs a little bit more than a traditional answer!

From a circuit analyses viewpoint, the answer is trivial.
What you are really asking is why and how does current flow in a conductor.
I don't see it being an ideal conductor makes any difference in the answer.

Yes. I have always thought that the electric field created by
the power source was "pushing" the electrons.
It seems that there is something wrong with this picture of the

Well, it helps, by simplifying the situation.

What makes aircraft fly at a constant velocity? Thrust = drag. What makes

What? You don't know the answer? You, the former "electronic engineer,
professionaly", need me to tell you? If you do know, are you so desperate
for attention that you're reduced to trolling on threads about circuit
theory?
It's essentially the same as the the PEC shorting a non-ideal power supply
as asked about by the OP: the current is mostly limited by the power
supply (in this case, the electron gun, its power supply etc). Do you
disagree that the total force on an electron moving at constant velocity
in a CRT is zero?
Despite the similarity between the CRT+circuit, and the PEC+circuit, there
is a fundamental difference: the charge density inside the PEC is zero,
while the charge density in the operating CRT is not, which will
contribute to limiting the current. Show your engineering talent: how
large is this contribution?
If you aren't just pointlessly trolled and really want to discuss physics,
you could continue some of our past discussions that you ran from:
Why do you claim that the field gradient is called the field strength?
What is the phase relationship (in time) between E and B in a
monochromatic plane-polarised plane EM wave in free space?
When is 5 hours earlier than 5 hours later than now?
Is the average magnitude of the velocity of an object that travels at
constant speed from A to B and back to A really equal to 0/0?
Why aren't you willing to discuss a derivation of the Lorentz
transformations?
http://groups.google.com.au/group/sci.physics/msg/07fbb2e45180a599?hl...
Why did you claim in successive posts that (a) Newton's laws don't hold in
any coordinate system, and (b) Newton's laws hold in every coordinate
system?
Now, from your past history, you'll either (a) cut and run,
(b) obsessively reply to my posts, or (c) respond with foul language.
Perhaps (d) all of the above, just as you did last time. The odds of you
actually making an attempt to discuss physics seems remote, from past
performance, but I ask: do you dare?
PS: Some might say that you are cowardly to post the type of
"content" that you post anonymously, but perhaps it is a sign of
consideration for your family, to protect them from being known as your
relatives - with all the associated stigma of possibly-hereditary
deficiency. You, such a sad and sorry example of a great and noble
people, indeed act in a compassionate manner to avoid your stink tainting

| Not at all. Is your comprehension of written English so poor?
I can clearly see YOUR English is so poor YOU cannot spell
"professionally", then.
Oh? You're complaining about my quoting of your spelling? Do you have so
little of substance to post about that you're spell-flaming your own
postings?

I did, you mispelt "professionally" and failed to answer my question, troll.

From a circuit analysis viewpoint, it really is trivial. What, do you think
that
something to do with the empty space in the CRT limits the current?
Why don't you go back and actually read what I wrote? Never mind, I know
why.

You? "Better"? No, *****, I'm adept in shoving your own arrogant
ignorance back up your arse.
Hi, Eliza!
Well, maybe one day, you'll be
| able to pas a Turing test if continue to do so.
pas?
Hi, Eliza!
Is that how you 'professionaly' spell "past", "pass", "phase", or you've
lapsed into French, what?
Maybe one day in the distant future I'll believe you are artificially
intelligent. Hmm... On second thoughts, I'll be dead first.
Hi, Eliza!
| > Limited by the electron gun... ridiculous.
| > I'm specifically considering the case of R=0.
|
| R=0 of what?
Ohms, moron. Do I have to explain R is resistance and has units of ohms?
Oh, you're not willing to say what has R=0? Why not?
| To be relevant to the thread, you'd be considering the case
| of the empty space having R=0, and if so, why would something other than
| the driving circuit limit the current? Or do you think the empty space has
| properties that limit the current?
Whine, whine, whine, troll, troll, troll.
So we can agree that empty space has undefined conductance.
Now, how about passing the Turing test and answering MY question, *****?
What limits the beam current in a CRT? Permittivity?
I've already answered that. You cut half the reply, being the POS you are.
Don't you know the answer, being the oh-so-wonderful "electronic
engineer" you are (or were)?

|
| Oh, and you cut a large portion of my reply.
Refusal to discuss physics noted.
Oh, you note your own refusal to discuss physics? Well, hardly a surprise,
being that you're well known to be as useful to discuss physics with as a
piece of dogshit on the street. I also note your copying of my own
wording. At least you either have the wit to ape your betters, or: Hi,
Eliza!
I'm doing it again, too, since it doesn't answer my question.
We'll get to your questions after you answer mine.
Does permittivity limit the beam current in a CRT, ranting troll?
The questions you ask have been answered, all questions asked of you are
cut, you cowardly POS, shitty hypocritical coward, cowardly hypocrite,
etc.
Well, google easily reveals your reluctance to actually discuss physics,
your general posting habits, and so on, so I don't expect any reply on
this point.
I'll give a chance to redeem yourself, and actually discuss some physics,
by taking up some of the items you've refused to discuss in the past:
Why do you claim that the field gradient is called the field strength?
What is the phase relationship (in time) between E and B in a
monochromatic plane-polarised plane EM wave in free space?
When is 5 hours earlier than 5 hours later than now?
Is the average magnitude of the velocity of an object that travels at
constant speed from A to B and back to A really equal to 0/0?
Why aren't you willing to discuss a derivation of the Lorentz
transformations?
http://groups.google.com.au/group/sci.physics/msg/07fbb2e45180a599?hl...
Why did you claim in successive posts that (a) Newton's laws don't hold in
any coordinate system, and (b) Newton's laws hold in every coordinate
system?
Now, from your past history, you'll either (a) cut and run,
(b) obsessively reply to my posts, or (c) respond with foul language.
Perhaps (d) all of the above, just as you did last time. The odds of you
actually making an attempt to discuss physics seems remote, from past
performance, but I ask: do you dare?
PS: Some might say that you are cowardly to post the type of
"content" that you post anonymously, but perhaps it is a sign of
consideration for your family, to protect them from being known as your
relatives - with all the associated stigma of possibly-hereditary
deficiency. You, such a sad and sorry example of a great and noble
people, indeed act in a compassionate manner to avoid your stink tainting
the reputation of that great and noble people!
PPS: Aren't I supposed to be a resident of your killfile?

Note: the knuckle-dragging Neanderthal "Timo A. Nieminen" has
passed the Turing test for the species "gorrilla gorrilla". It has failed
the Turing test for homo sapiens, it is unable to answer a question
and has gone into repetition mode.
