Statement

14.3.25∗.

Solve problem 14.3.24 for a round long solenoid

Solution

first Analyse the rest frame S'

We have a long cylindrical solenoid, with axis along z'.
rest magnetic moment

There is no electric dipole moment:

In the laboratory system S, the solenoid moves with velocity

This is the same situation as in the problem 14.3.24 but with the round solenoid

Under a boost with velocity
the electric and magnetic dipole momentsand (in CGS) transform as

With of course

so this simplifies to

Expression in SI

And finaly In the International System, the equivalent transformation is

Answer

The geometry (flat or round) does not affect the vector relation between the magnetic moment at rest and the electric moment induced by motion.
