Magnetic and Electric Potentials
Using the definitions of the potentials,
and the constitutive relation
B
= μ
0
(
H
+
M
), Ampère’s law can be rewritten as
(10-7)
The equation of continuity, which is obtained by taking the divergence of the above equation, adds the following equation:
(10-8)
Equation 10-7
and
Equation 10-8
form a system of equations for the two potentials
A
and
V
.
