• Bound charges can move short distances under an electric field to form electric dipoles. (A dipole is a pair of equal and oppositecharges (+Q,-Q) separated at a small distance r. The dipole moment p is equal to Qrar. )

4.6 Presence of a conductor
Electric current will flow in a conductor when there is an electric field. The current density J (A/m2) is proportional to the electric field intensity E.
where σ is the conductivity of the material. This is another form of Ohm’s Law. The total current I flowing through a surface S is given by:
EJ σ=

dI SJ.
In the interior of a perfect conductor, σ is very large so that E can be assumed to be zero.

Intro.33
The physical meaning of the integral form of Gauss Law: the total electric flux leaving a closed surface
is equal to the net charge enclosed by the
surface. The net charge is just equal to the summation of all the positive or negative charges inside. Note that the variation of the positions of the charges does NOT alter the total flux leaving the surface; the variation only affects the distributionpattern of the electric lines of force.

Intro.34
An electrostatic field is conservative, i.e. 0∫ =C
dlE.
It means the energy required to move any charge around a closed loop is zero! The reason is that in moving along the path, sometimes work is done by the electric force on the charge, and sometimes work is done against the electric force. If we regard as the potential
difference between two points on the path, must
be zero because it is the potential difference between the same points.
Note that is not necessarily zero in a time-
varying magnetic field because of the induced e.m.f. due to the magnetic flux.
