Question
Give the $SI$ unit of current density and its dimensional formula.

Answer

Current density is the amount of charge flowing per second through a unit area.
The $SI$ unit of current density is ampere per square metre $(Am^{-2})$ and its dimensions are $[A^1L^{-2}].$

Consider the two idealised systems: (i) a parallel plate capacitor with large plates and small separation and (ii) a long solenoid of length L > > R, radius of cross-section. In (i), E is ideally treated as a constant between plates and zero outside. In (ii), magnetic field is constant inside the solenoid and zero outside. These idealised assumptions, however, contradict fundamental laws as below:
