How does the Poynting vector know who is the primary and who is the secondary of a transformer?

I've read in several places that the Poynting vector is directed from the primary to the secondary of a transformer (we assume here that the primary is the winding that provide the AC energy, while th …

Apparent contradiction in Ampere law for a solenoid

This picture in Wikipedia is supposed to explain the solenoid formula for the magnetic field $$B l= \mu_0 N I$$ (assuming steady currents). But this would be true if one consider only the part of the …
