| Jan 25 at 17:46 | comment | added | Ján Lalinský | Conductors in usual low frequency circuits have $\rho = 0$ inside, non-zero charge density can be only on their surface. But on the surface, the local Ohm law $\mathbf j = \sigma \mathbf E$ does not hold, because current component perpendicular to the surface can be zero, while electric field is not, so the two vectors are not parallel. Also, $\sigma$ is not position independent on the surface. One can have non-zero charge density on the surface while divergence of $\mathbf j$ is zero, this is e.g. when the surface charge is constant in time. | |
