Over such a short distance the ground constants have hardly any effect so I don't think it would be of use to you. 73, Dick, PA0SE Gamal wrote: >Hello all > >I have some questions on >how electric and magnetic field lines are aligned, >how fieldstrength will vary with distance from source >in the following four academic cases. > > > >Constrains which are common for all cases: > >* No ionosphere present. >* earth constitutes a level plain of matter with >electric parameters as specified. >* A vertically polarized electromagnetic field emanates from >an otherwise unspecified source. >* The fieldstrength when measured on ground is 1 V/m >at a distance of 1 km from the source. > > > >(case 1) >assume earth conductivity is infinity, >rel. permeability equals ONE, >rel. permitivity equals ONE > >(case 2) >assume earth conductivity is ZERO, >rel. permeability equals ONE, >rel. permitivity equals ONE > >(case 3) >assume earth conductivity is ZERO, >rel. permeability equals ONE, >rel. permitivity equals 80 (eight zero). > >(case 4) >assume earth conductivity is ONE mhos/meter, >rel. permeability equals ONE, >rel. permitivity equals ONE. > >best 73 de Gamal > > >
