Problem 1:Find the amplitude of the displacement current density:
(a) adjacent to an automobile antenna where the magnetic field intensity of an FM signal is
Hx 0.15cos[3.12(3 108 t y )]A m ;
(b) in the air space at a point within a large power distribution transformer where
B 0.8cos[1.257 10 6 (3 108 t x)]yT ;
(c) within a large, oil-filled power capacitor where r 5 and
E 0.9cos[1.257 106 (3 108 t z 5)]x MV m ;
(d) in a metallic conductor at 60Hz, if 0 , 0 , 5.8 107 S m , and
J sin(377t 117.1z )x MA m2 .

0.468sin[3.12(3 108 t y )] zA m 2
So the amplitude is 0.468A/m2.

So the amplitude is 0.8002A/m2.

t
5.7549 1011 cos(377t 117.1z )x A m2
So the amplitude is 57.549μA/m2. Here we can see the amplitude of displacement current density Jd ,
57.549μA/m2, is much smaller than the amplitude of the conduction current density J , 106A/m2 .

Problem 3:The parallel-plate transmission line shown in the figure below has dimensions b=4cm and
d=8mm, while the medium between the plates is characterized by r 1 , r 20 , and 0 .
Neglect fields outside the dielectric. Given the field H 5cos(109 t z ) y A , use Maxwell’s
m
equations to help find
(a) , if 0 ;
(b) The displacement current density at z=0;
(c) The total displacement current crossing the surface x=0.5d, 0<y<b,0<z<0.1m in the x direction.
