Maxwell's Equations FAIL to Explain This Experiment

This experiment demonstrates why Maxwell's equations had problems with the motion before Einstein's special relativity was introduced. It is an experiment where according to Maxwell's equations when there is a current in the conductor, a magnetic field around appears. The force on the charged particle is then proportional to the velocity of the particle but there is no objective way to determine its velocity since we expect the Galilean Principle of Relativity to hold. The problem is cured by the phenomena of special relativity in particular the length contraction which causes the charge densities inside the conductor to depend on the observer.

[@lukasrafajpps]

@Crime Master gogo No because the definition we use is that the direction of current is where the positive charge travels. It means that if electrons travel a certain distance the current is gonna be in the opposite direction but if protons travel in a certain direction the current is in the direction of the protons. Since the current in both frames is the same, then the magnetic field is the same. This is a commonly known and the confusing fact that when you have + and - on the battery, it means that + is a positively charged deck and - is a negatively charged deck and if you connect them with a wire the electrons from - will travel to + but we say the current is from + to -.

[@lukasrafajpps]

@Crime Master gogo Sorry it took so long to reply. The direction of the magnetic field was meant to be as you say. It is just a weird perspective that sometimes it appears other way around. I even made mistake in 10:50 since it should have different orientation there but I realized it too late :D

[@VortekStarling]

Here's the problem with the contracting protons theory, you have to say "wire of infinite length", which obviously dos not exist. What would happen in the real world, where wires have finite length? If the protons and the distances between them contracted then the wire itself would also contract, because it is also in the same relative motion as the protons, and if the wire contracted then the spaces between the electrons would also contract, because if they didn't then it would be the same as the electrons suddenly spreading apart from each other just because a particle was moving outside the wire, and if they spread apart then fewer electrons could fit inside the wire, so where would the extra ones go? This is how we know that length contraction is pure fantasy.

[@lukasrafajpps]

@@VortekStarling If you want to solve it for a finite wire you have to use the relativity of simultaneity as it is the actual cause of the length contraction. I would need to create animation to explain this but maybe I will when I record the video about what the length contraction really is.

[@VortekStarling]

@@lukasrafajpps Okay, but also record a video about a square moving vehicle with both a horizontal light beam going from the lower left corner to the lower right corner and a diagonal beam going from the upper left corner to the same lower right corner. You'll find that it's impossible to make both beams work using the same desynchronization of the clocks at the back and front of the square. Why? Because the diagonal beam is only moving toward the front of the square at half the speed of the horizontal beam, because its velocity is split half horizontal and half vertical, because its on a 45 degree angle. So it moves forward at half the velocity and therefore requires a different desynchronization, it breaks special relativity and proves it is flawed.

the equations do explain the experiment correctly, it’s the incorrect assumption that the reference frames follow galilean transforms that’s incorrect

[@lukasrafajpps]

Yes it is kinda clickbait but not entirely because at that time there were only galilean transforms and therefore Maxwell's equations could not explain this. This means that at that time people would say there is something odd about maxwell's equations. So this title can be taken as from historical point of view.

However, magnets DO exist - rocks from Magnesia or Magnetic Island are magnets with a North & South Pole. The Force of Attraction (Repulsion) between protons & electrons is extremely strong . Even if velocity v of proton is relatively small so that contraction of the wire is quite small, the resultant Force is still significant. If we stood next to someone at arm’s length, & we had 1% more electrons, then the Force of Repulsion would equal the ‘weight’ of the entire Earth.

[@pyropulseIXXI]

It is not a relativistic effect of the electric field though. The 4-vector literally has magnetic field components. this is just a stupid explanation that doesn't really explain anything, and this seems to be a common trend in physics; take something and explain it within something wrong, but claim it is true. A single moving charge causes a magnetic field, and there is no 'difference in positive and negative' to cause an 'electric field that looks like a magnetic field.' The fact you can transform to a frame of which a magnetic does not exist doesn't mean the magnetic field is a relativistic effect of the electric field

[@pyropulseIXXI]

Magnetic field is not a relativistic effect of the electric field. Light is a self-propagating electromagnetic wave, with magnetic and electric field components orthogonal to one another. There is no frame you can transform into that removes the magnetic field. If you could do this, you'd be in a frame where light has a speed of 0. So, SR directly proves that magnetic fields are not a relativistic effect. Ironic, no?

👏👏👏👏Yes! I experienced the same fascination as you mention at the end of the video, many years ago, when I realized what you perfectly describe in this video.🤯 😁 The path of reasoning I learned about what happened historically is equivalent but slightly different though. Maxwell, when analyzing the findings of Coulomb, Faraday, Ampere, and together with the mathematical insight of Gauss, realized that a correction was to be made to the formula derived by Ampere. The derivative of the electric field multiplied by the electric permittivity and the magnetic permeativity had to be added. The product of these two constants is very small, so it was understandable that Ampere didn’t observe this flaw, and it took the genius of Maxwell to realize that without this term the equations yield a mathematical contradiction. By adding this term the equation of a wave function is immediately derived, a wave moving at a speed equal to the inverse of the square root of the product of the mentioned constants. This speed happened to be numerically equal to the speed of light! So this finding settled the debate about light being a wave, and the success of this finding was immense! But then, a new apparent inconsistency showed up. The electric permittivity and the magnetic permeativity are plain dimensional constants, it makes no sense for them to be different as measured in different moving reference frames. It took the genius of Einstein to solve this apparent contradiction by daring to say that, well, there it is, in front of our eyes. The speed of light is a constant with the same value in any frame of reference. 😎

[@charliejohnston1978]

Actually the speed of light is not exactly a constant, but rather it is a dimensional relativity limit of the force of time. Time (not clock time) is a force in it's own right, that is what is wrong with these equations. Light slows down when change mediums and its speed in matter is slower than in a free space vacuum.

A mechanical elites was asked what vacuum means. In his reply - vacuum is empty of matter. An electrical engineer was given the same question - he replies, vacuum is empty of matter but Aether. Aether is a fluid that has no physical but electrical property, with a permittivity measuring 8.8541817128*10-12 Farad per meter. Therefore Aether is a component necessary to enable e field and displacement charge q into the vacuum-Aether for light propagation inside. Furthermore, Aether, a fluid, always attaches to matter, from subatomic particles to atoms to molecules to ions to solid to liquid to gas and to plasma. When gas, liquid, solid moves Aether drag along with it, also together with the MMX apparatus. On the other hand, from a macrocosm scale, Aether as a fluid continue and remotely drag with everything but drift at an averages velocity defined by the nearest and most dominant body in the 3D space.

3:15 - This definitely holds when the wire is not charged and current is not flowing, because we won't observe external electric field. Comparing to it, at 7:56 length contraction will produce external (repulsive) electric field (on the moving test particle). By the symmetry, at 7:45 the stationary observer should observe length contraction of moving electron chain, right? Length contraction should produce excess negative charge density on the wire, so we should observe measurable external electric field (i.e. stationary test particle should be attracted towards the wire). But we do not observe measurable electric field, correct? What am I missing?

[@lukasrafajpps]

My assumptions were that the wire is neutral already with the current inside. You can make assumptions as you like when you want to demonstrate some physical phenomena. If I assumed the wire being neutral without current, then after I turn ON the current then the wire becomes charged as you said. In labolatory though, after you switch ON the current the wire would neutralize itself relative to the frame in which the mean velocity of nearby charges is zero. Therefore it the wire in a labolatory without current is neutral, when you switch ON the current the charge of the wire spike up and then decay to zero.

it's fascinating to consider that at the same time this was being figured out people like Peano and Russell were in the process of destroying mathematics with absurd notions like mathematics is about operations over numbers, and numbers can be defined correctly via a successor operation. the problems here are numerous, and ultimately yield Incompleteness, thus defeating the purpose of Logicism. for instance, if 1 is the successor to 0, then how is 1/2 considered a number? and, if mathematical operations operate over numbers then how does division render unit conversion possible by handling pure units? and if numbers are sequential, as the successor operation insists, then how can 1+1=2 and 1+1=48 at the same time, given that 1 frog + 1 frog = 2 frogs, but 1 foot + 1 yard = 48 inches? and if each number is unique, then how can it be that I just showed you that 2 = 48? these are literally problems that toddlers notice, and yet they're just ignored by mainstream mathematics, even after more than 90 years with knowledge of the Incompleteness they induce despite the fact that they only exist in the first place because of a misguided movement to yield completeness. and beyond this, it's still popularly believed that Whitehead and Russell proved 1+1=2, despite the fact that they never made that claim, and the book which alluded to it was the very thing being criticized by Godel in his proofs of Incompleteness. tldr, as physics got smarter, math got way, way dumber... and that's amazing.

[@lukasrafajpps]

Ok so first of all we need to clarify what maxwell's equations tell us. If we measure a certain value of let's say electric field and how it changes in time, we can calculate how the magnetic field will behave. Maxwell's equations have no predicting power for what will happen to a charged particle near a wire with non zero current without proper initial conditions. You have to put some information into the equations (like the measured charge of the wire in certain frame of reference) and then you can make predictions. Let's assume couple of different situations. scenario 1) We have a charged particle near a wire and we know the current in the wire is non zero. We measure no force acted on the charged particle therefore we conclude the wire is neutral. Now we can use the information about the current inside the wire and calculate what force would act on the charged particle if it started moving with certain velocity and we would conclude it is due to magnetic field of the wire. But from the particles point of view, we just pushed the particle into a frame where the wire is electrically charged. Scenario 2) We have a wire with the same current but now we measure a force acting on our stationary charged particle. We conclude that the wire is electrically charged, then we can calculate for example how fast should the particle move in the opposite direction so the magnetic field compensate the measured electric field and there would be no force on the particle. But from the particles point of view, we just pushed it into a frame where the wire is neutral. This video is just about the fact that different observers would conclude that the force is due to different effect but the strength of the force must remain the same.

Usually, if you are in a lab, the wire is neutral in your frame of reference because statistically, all particles inside the laboratory have zero velocity on average (considering velocities in all directions).

If your perspective is that all of the positive charges are stationary, then shouldn't the positive charge be pulled toward the wire regardless of the direction the negative charges are moving, since any movement of the negative charge causes length contraction? But this isn't what happens. Also, I'm pretty sure Maxwell's equations hold if your velocity is just the velocity between the moving charges and the positive reference charge. I think for this video to make more sense it should explain/show how when negative charges flow in one direction positive charges also flow in the opposite direction. It's hard for me to make sense of it when one of the charges is perfectly stationary. It makes it appear as if a charge stationary relative to the wire will have a force on it when a current is induced, which I'm pretty sure it does not (but I could be wrong?) I do really love this topic, and I remember when Veritasium explained it and I had the same confusions. Good video and I'd love another one going even more in depth!

[@lukasrafajpps]

This is very idealized situation of what is happening inside the wire. Usually positive charges are making the metal that the wire is made of and since the metal is conductor, there is very little resistance for electrons to move from atom to atom. Therefore we can interpret the conductor as fixed set of positive charges and moving electrons but the fact they are fixed to the metal itself has nothing to do with the relativity of this problem. The fact that the conductor is neutral when the electrons are moving is my initial assumption. In reality, if you have a conductor without current it is also neutral and when you start the current then the wire becomes charged but it will eventually neutralize itself relative to average velocity of nearby charges.

Why is there length contraction in one case and not the other ? Thanks

[@lukasrafajpps]

Hi, this question is actually very common. The answer is simple, the neutrality of the wire before the transformation was my initial assumption. When solving problems in physics you always start with your initial assumptions but I think you probably need something practical. Imagine you are in your experimental room and you have a wire there without a current. In the frame of the room, the average velocity of nearby charges is zero and there is no reason for the wire to be charged therefore is neutral. now if you start current in the wire it becomes electrically charged relative to the room as you say. but since the average velocities of nearby charges relative to the wire is zero, it is no longer true relative to the electrons inside the wire. This means that positively charged particles nearby the wire start fall onto the wire and negatively charged particles would be reppeled until the wire neutralise itself relative to the room. This way, you can have a neutral wire with a current because there is always a frame in which the wire is neutral. hope this helps :)

[@eb4462]

@@lukasrafajpps ok I now understand better how you get to having a neutral wire, and you take that situation as the initial conditions for your demonstration. In a similar situation, the person in the moving frame of reference relative to the wire could argue that their wire is neutral so the Lorentz force would be of magnetic origin. So from our point of view, in the frame of reference of the wire, the wire would indeed be charged and an electric field would arise.

Whether they conclude if it is electric or magnetic field responsible for the force that depends on the observer because the definitions of those fields are simple. You have a stationary charged particle and there is some misterious force acting on it? It is electric force. is the particle moving and the force acts in perpendicular direction to that movement? It is magnetic field. But the movement is relative so if one conclude it is electric field, other would conclude it is magnetic field or both. Maxwell's equation are here to teach us that electric charge is the source of electric field and then they teach us how electric and magnetic fields are coupled. In future I am planning to make a video that goes in depth into this issue with electric and magnetic field because those are just 3D representations of something more fundamental as I said in this video :)

The velocity of a wire is not important. We don't even need a wire. We can only think of moving charges without a wire. Then there is no objective way to put certain velocity inside the Lorentz force equation

[@dunsel5887]

for the most part you are correct. But if I look at just the charges, with no wire I see the "+ & -" attract each other. with the wire the "+" represents the protons of the atoms, and the "-" represents the electrons of the atoms in the wire, the electrons do not flow like water in a pipe, but more like a wavefront more like (and this is still over simplified) a Newton's cradle. the electrons don't move until the wavefront arrives and stops moving after the front passes. So, if you have length constriction of the protons you have the same with the electrons in these atoms as the electrons do not move until the wavefront arrives. I know that this does not fully express what I'm saying but I hope you can get the jest of it

Imagine space as non motion holding its position. Imagine thermal energy singularity frequencies being repelled by cold resistance throughout space as space. Maximum momentum velocity in resistance. Thermal energy singularity frequencies and cold stationary negative fabric of space itself. Imagine that these thermal energy singularity frequencies harmonize their flow in unidirectional forward maximum momentum velocity in resistance. Increasing their overall level of harmonics, and interweaving their spiraling frequencies and resistance towards forward maximum momentum velocity in resistance, increases in amplification, to the harmonics harmonization of flow, redirecting forward momentum into cycling circulation patterns, holding mass together in equalization of resistance. Occupational space vibrating in forward momentum reducing distance from entanglement of redirected trajectories cycling in magnetic fields, of clockwise, and counterclockwise, at the same value of maximum momentum velocity in resistance. Resistance is a constant value throughout space and mass. In mass it is outward force of pressure known as weight contained in mass. Maximum momentum velocity is constant, in and out of entanglement. Fluidity to illusionary solidity cycling patterns. Space vibrates itself as dark energy passing through mass. This is the reason for aging or decay. We are space itself in occupation. We are a wave pattern that travels through it as it. Thermal energy singularity frequencies rebounding in mass as weight. Resistance is a repellant. Thermal energy singularity frequencies are propelled towards mass, as mass, is the weakest point of resistance, which is mass. Mass surrounding areas of space neutralizes resistance in it as outward force of pressure known as weight, contained within. Trajectories of mass are repelled towards mass as the weakest point of resistance. The star close to proximity massive mass is losing its equalization to the greater mass of weaker resistance. So the stars outermost layers are pushing their thermal energy singularity frequencies towards the weakest point of resistance which is greater occupation in resistance, producing the star to lose its outer pressure towards the weakest point of resistance. The equalization of resistance has to be maintained for cycling patterns. Only thermal energy singularity frequencies can disrupt cycling patterns. Thermodynamics variations affecting elements. Hydrogen absorbs thermal energy singularity frequencies and expands into helium. Helium occupies more area than hydrogen. Helium has more outward force of pressure known as weight contained within. Occupational space. Proximity mass weakens resistance. The moon is neutralized resistance of space. Trajectories are repelled to occupational areas of space by resistance. The water rises because resistance is weaker by proximity mass neutralized resistance. Thermodynamics is outward pressure. Space is cold fabric. Temperature is dependent on accumulated thermal energy singularity frequencies. Thermal energy makes or breaks mass. Equalization of resistance to thermal energy is key.

Something (amongst all the other stuff I don't understand about all this): How can we talk about positive charges in the wire, when most of the electrons in the (assumed metallic) wire are still bound to their respective nuclei, and hence 'shield' most of the charge on the nucleus. When a current flows in a wire, are there indeed 'extra' electrons in that wire compared to a non-connected wire? Otherwise it would seem that as you increase the voltage in the wire, you are more and more ionising the wire, as extra electrons are freed from their orbitals. Where am I going wrong?

[@lukasrafajpps]

Since the metal is conductor the electrons are almost free and can easily travel from atom to atom. Otherwire the wire would not be able to conduct electricity. About the extra electrons, when you have a neutral conductor without a current and then you apply current then the wire becomes temporaly charged but it will neutralise itself relative to the reference frame in which the average velocity of nearby charges is zero.

It seems to me that this explanation does not stand for at least 3 reasons : - the length contraction effect depends only on the modulus of the speed, so the effect would not depend on the direction of the current. - the contraction effect play a symmetrical role also for the electrons when the reference frame of the atoms is used. - you could consider a free electron beam, i. e. suppress all the positive charges, and the magnetic effect would be the same (not considering the electrostatic force) It is the EM field itself that is viewed differently from each reference frame, it doesn't depends on the way it is produced.

[@narfwhals7843]

1: It depends on the relative motion of the observers. If the observer is moving _with_ the current the effect will be different than when the observe is moving against it. That is why the direction matters. 2: Correct.The single charge moving relative to the wire would be length contracted from the point of view of the positive charges in the wire. What do you think this would change? 3: If you ignore the electrostatic force between two parallel electron beams the effect would be the same. But the electrostatic force completely dominates this experiment! There will never be a net magnetic attraction. The magnetic effect in this scenario would be to effectively weaken the electrostatic repulsion. This is an effect of _time dilation_ . The force seen on moving particles produces less acceleration than we expect. This video by Eugene Khutoryansky explains this effect in some detail kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHypq4luqLt3qaM "It is the EM field itself that is viewed differently from each reference frame, it doesn't depends on the way it is produced." Correct. But if you don't know what produces it you don't know how to transform it because the transformation depends on your motion relative to the source. These effects show why it makes so much sense to view E and M as a single field in the first place.

In 4D time to meet '+' and '-' is proportional to distance between units, and time of reincarnation of dipole in 3D also constant.

Thank you for your clear explanation. Nevertheless, I am still a bit puzzled. So we make distance a relative notion. OK. Now not just velocity is relative, also distance and time. We start moving along a zero current wire and notice the density in the direction of motion increases but not in the perpendicular direction. Yet, a stationary observer doesn't detect any change in density in either direction. So all physical 'measures' that depend on space and time, depend on the observer. So what independent physical properties are left? Can we still count particles independent of the observer? Can we order particles independent of the observer? What more?

[@narfwhals7843]

The independent properties here are the speed of light, the _total_ charge, and the "spacetime interval", which is the 4-dimensional "spacetime distance" between two points in spacetime. (there is also the four-current, which is the 4-dimensional notion combining charge density and current). " Can we still count particles independent of the observer? " _Usually_ we can, but not when we get in the details and include quantum field theory. An accelerated observer will have a different notion of "vacuum" than an inertial one. They will see particles where the inertial observer sees none. That is the source of the Unruh-Effect, and in curved spacetime gives rise to Hawking Radiation around black holes.

@@narfwhals7843 Thank you for your response. I know too little about the subject to appreciate all of what you said. It take from it that theories have been made that counter some or all of those paradoxes, but they have introduced new ones as well. For instance, if the distances between the electrons contract but the rest of the wire does not contract, then one could say that some how extra electron need to be created in order to maintain the current. Or in another example: you have a circle of copper wire in which there is an electrical current traveling around. Then, for an observer stationary to most of the wire, the moving electrons move in a flattened circle because of length contraction, but the rest of the wire does not contract. So the current some how has left the wire! Explaining these kinds of phenomenon with 'weirdness' of quantum mechanics does not make much sense to me. Nevertheless, if you are able to predict useful properties, why not.

[@narfwhals7843]

@@Cor97 Keep in mind that the total charge is unaffected. The wire is _overall_ electrically neutral. The relativistic effects create areas where the electron density is higher and areas where it is lower. If we have a steady current the wire must be a loop. If we have a decrease in electron density where we are moving with the current, we will have an _increase_ on the other side of the loop where the current flows the other direction and so the electrons are moving relative to us. The current does not leave the wire, just the distances between electrons shrink but they are not a solid ring so you don't get a flattened circle. Just again areas of increased and decreased density. And this is exactly how you get the magnetic field around a coil of wire. You don't need quantum mechanics to explain it at this level.

While it makes sense for quantities in 4D to have 4 components, that doesn't actually explain why the electromagnetic field still seems to have 6 components. The reason why what seems like it should be a 4-dimensional quantity actually appears as a 6-dimensional quantity is really interesting. One thing that you might notice if you're familiar to combinatorics, binomials, or Pascal's Triangle is that there are 6 different ways to chose 2 elements out of a set of 4. Could each component of the electromagnetic field really be between 2 of the 4 dimensions? We might also note that the timelike dimension behaves noticeably differently from the spacelike dimensions, and those 6 can be split into two groups: those that have a timelike component, and those that don't. Knowing Pascal's Triangle, it should be apparent that the 6 could be derived from each pair of dimensions in 3D along with an extra component for each of the single dimensions, which would now be raised up to have a timelike part. The components with a timelike part are the electric field, and the components without a timelike part are the magnetic field.

Those equations forced electricians to build symmetrically regaged circuits. Or, input will always be equal and opposite to output. Vector and Tensor analysis was born out of Heaviside's equations, or similar very similar math. Useful but limiting. Terry Berrett looked at Maxwell's original 20 equation paper - a higher order math, and came up with Resonance and Aspect Matched Adaptive Radar. This would not have been possible with the worlds best Vector and Tensor analysis, because these equations ignore that integrated 4th dimension. Don't crap on Maxwell's equations so much. Yes they are missing some esoteric components, but then again, they aren't really his equations. They are Heaviside's truncated interpretations of Maxwell's original 20.

keep at it

How about the scenario where the charge is moving towards the wire?

[@narfwhals7843]

The charges that are approaching you are more contracted than the ones that are moving away from you. So you have a higher charge density on one side leading to a force along the wire.

Have in mind that Lorenz transform was introduced by Lorenz to prove that there is a global frame of reference (the so called aether) for all observers (option 1) in order to explain why the Michelson-Morley experiment didn't produce any results... But Einstein used Lorenz transform to prove that there is not a global frame of reference for all observers (option 2). So as you can see, it is a matter of interpretation, or a philosophical position whether which is correct... and not an actual fact...

[@narfwhals7843]

Einstein did not use the Lorentz Transforms to prove this. He _assumed_ that the speed of light is constant for all observers and used that assumption to *derive* the Lorentz transforms. This basically shows that any aether theory which obeys the lorentz transform must have a completely undetectable aether.

Great!!

[@omy0698]

However you explain very well my friend 😉

[@user-xk1cp5jd2g]

what is the geometrical size of time ? What is the geometrical size of aka space ? Its the first question peer review should ask

[@user-xk1cp5jd2g]

want a modern predition? I'll give you one . If you bring incoherent magnetism near dc current ? This should be a huge upgrade

I don't understand why the electrons spread out in their frame. They start moving so length contracts in their direction. Meaning that they are closer to other electrons leading to increased electron density but the protons contract too leading to increased proton density. I've been wracking my head on this problem for a while now. I have no idea why the electrons spreadout.

this is an initial conditions problem. I tackle this issue in one of my videos about 5 common mistakes in relativity.
