The correct Answer is:
To determine which of Maxwell's equations have sources of the electric field \(\vec{E}\) and the magnetic field \(\vec{B}\), we will analyze each of the four equations provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Equation:** \[ \oint \vec{E} \cdot \vec{dS} = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0} \] This equation is known as Gauss's Law for electricity. It states that the electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed within that surface. Hence, this equation has a source: the electric field \(\vec{E}\) has sources in the form of electric charge \(q\). 2. **Identify the Second Equation:** \[ \oint \vec{B} \cdot \vec{dS} = 0 \] This equation is Gauss's Law for magnetism. It indicates that there are no magnetic monopoles; the magnetic flux through a closed surface is zero. Therefore, this equation does not have a source for the magnetic field \(\vec{B}\). 3. **Identify the Third Equation:** \[ \oint \vec{E} \cdot \vec{dl} = \frac{d}{dt} \oint \vec{B} \cdot \vec{dS} \] This is Faraday's Law of Induction. It relates the electric field around a closed loop to the rate of change of magnetic flux through the loop. While it describes how changing magnetic fields can induce electric fields, it does not have a source term for \(\vec{E}\) or \(\vec{B}\). 4. **Identify the Fourth Equation:** \[ \oint \vec{B} \cdot \vec{dl} = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d}{dt} \oint \vec{E} \cdot \vec{dS} \] This equation is known as the Ampère-Maxwell Law. It relates the magnetic field around a closed loop to the rate of change of electric flux through the loop. Similar to the third equation, it does not contain a source term for \(\vec{B}\) or \(\vec{E}\). ### Conclusion: - The equations that have sources are: - **First Equation:** \(\oint \vec{E} \cdot \vec{dS} = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}\) (source of \(\vec{E}\)) - The other equations (Second, Third, and Fourth) do not have sources for \(\vec{E}\) or \(\vec{B}\).
