Modified Ampere's circuital law stated by Maxwell is (I=( I = conduction current, ϵ0dϕEdt={ϵ}_{0}\dfrac{d{ϕ}_{E}}{dt} = displacement current, μ0{μ}_{0} and ε0{ε}_{0}& is& permeability and permittivity of free space)

Options

  1. A{ε}_{0} \cdot {μ}_{0} \left[I + \dfrac{d{ϕ}_{E}}{dt}\right]&
  2. B{μ}_{0} \left[I + {ϵ}_{0} ⋅\cdot\dfrac{d{ϕ}_{E}}{dt}\right]&
  3. C{ε}_{0} \left[I + {μ}_{0} ⋅\cdot\dfrac{dϕE}{dt}\right]&
  4. D\dfrac{ϵ0}{\mu0} \left[I + \dfrac{dϕE}{dt}\right]$$

Correct answer

B. {μ}_{0} \left[I + {ϵ}_{0} ⋅\cdot\dfrac{d{ϕ}_{E}}{dt}\right]&

Step-by-step solution

The total current through the circuit will be the sum of the conduction current and the displacement current. Ampere's law has only conduction current but after Maxwell modification, displacement current is also added in it. The Maxwell-Ampere equation is given by,

∮B→⋅dl→=μ0Itotal∮ \overset{→}{B} \cdot d \overset{→}{l} = {μ}_{0}{I}_{total}

∮ \overset{→}{B} \cdot d \overset{→}{l} = {μ}_{0} \left(I + {ε}_{0} \cdot \dfrac{d {ϕ}_{E}}{d t}\right).</p></blockquote></p></blockquote>
