Hi, there:
I am a newbie in EM, and got a problem here. suppose an incident plane wave is radiating in the presence of a conducting cylinder, and the textbook said, OK, that the total electric field is ZERO at the boundary of the cylinder, but there is current flowing on the surface of cylinder, The problem here is : if there is no E on the surface, how could the electrons be driven to form current?
TIA..
