In a medium other than air, the electric flux density will be(a) Solenoidal(b) Curl free(c) Irrotational(d) DivergentThis question was addressed to me in semester exam.This is a very interesting question from Maxwell Law 3 topic in division Maxwell Equations of Electromagnetic Theory

Answer»

Correct answer is (d) Divergent

To EXPLAIN: In any medium other than the air, the conduction is possible, due to the CHARGE carriers. Thus charge density is also non-zero. We can write from Gauss law that Div(D) is non-zero. When the divergence is said to be non-zero, the field is not SOLENOIDAL or CALLED as divergent field.
