"Brian Reay" wrote in message ... It is nonsense, they can be no wave in the element due to it being a conductor. You seem to be unaware that a travelling wave around a wire is what causes the wave to move along the wire, and not the electrons inside, which only oscillate a very short distance about their mean. You seem to be unaware that current is the total, net movement of all the electrons in a wire, not just a single electron. He is confusing the I and V plots for waves. There is no confusion on my part. Perhaps you could explain where you think I am confused, for I had not mentioned the separated I and V waveforms. Yeah, right. Perhaps you are confused yourself, perhaps, by the current maximum at the centre of a dipole, for it is not a DC maximum but rises and falls in magnitude? Only a very confused individual would babble on about the instantaneous current or voltage. -- Jim Pennino |
