Standing Waves in a Cavity01:28

Standing Waves in a Cavity

1.3K
A household microwave and lasers are examples of standing electromagnetic waves in a cavity. When two conducting metal plates are placed parallel at the nodal planes, it creates a cavity where standing waves are formed. The cavity between the two planes is analogous to a stretched string held at the points x = 0 and x = L. Here, the distance 'L' between the two planes must be an integer multiple of half of the wavelength. The wavelengths that satisfy this condition are given by:

Poisson's And Laplace's Equation

3.9K
The electric potential of the system can be calculated by relating it to the electric charge densities that give rise to the electric potential. The differential form of Gauss's law expresses the electric field's divergence in terms of the electric charge density.

Linear Approximation in Frequency Domain

258
Linear systems are characterized by two main properties: superposition and homogeneity. Superposition allows the response to multiple inputs to be the sum of the responses to each individual input. Homogeneity ensures that scaling an input by a scalar results in the response being scaled by the same scalar.
In contrast, nonlinear systems do not inherently possess these properties. However, for small deviations around an operating point, a nonlinear system can often be approximated as linear....

Sound as Pressure Waves

2.9K
Sound waves, which are longitudinal waves, can be modeled as the displacement amplitude varying as a function of the spatial and temporal coordinates. As a column of the medium is displaced, its successive columns are also displaced. As the successive displacements differ relatively, a pressure difference with the surrounding pressure is created. The gauge pressure varies across the medium.
The pressure fluctuation depends on the difference in displacements between the successive points in the...

Types of Responses of Series RLC Circuits

1.4K
A second-order differential equation characterizes a source-free series RLC circuit, marking its distinct mathematical representation. The complete solution of this equation is a blend of two unique solutions, each linked to the circuit's roots expressed in terms of the damping factor and resonant frequency.

Current Growth And Decay In RL Circuits01:30

Current Growth And Decay In RL Circuits

4.3K
The current growth and decay in RL circuits can be understood by considering a series RL circuit consisting of a resistor, an inductor, a constant source of emf, and two switches. When the first switch is closed, the circuit is equivalent to a single-loop circuit consisting of a resistor and an inductor connected to a source of emf. In this case, the source of emf produces a current in the circuit. If there were no self-inductance in the circuit, the current would rise immediately to a steady...

    • Modeling nonlinear material perturbations in these systems presents challenges due to field profile ambiguities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a perturbation theory framework for nonlinear material perturbations in leaky optical cavities.
    • To address the ambiguity in stored energy specification in quasinormal modes.
