Question

In dielectric medium, the Maxwell second equation becomes

(a) Curl(H) = Jd

(b) Curl(H) = Jc

(c) Curl(E) = Jd

(d) Curl(E) = Jd

I had been asked this question during an interview for a job.

I'd like to ask this question from Maxwell Law 2 topic in portion Maxwell Equations of Electromagnetic Theory

Answer 1

Right choice is (a) Curl(H) = Jd

Easiest explanation: In dielectric medium conductivity σ will be zero. So the current density has only the displacement current density. Thus the Maxwell equation will be Curl(H) = Jd.
