Excuse me responders. I appreciate your responses but you don't quite
have the idea here. You are all responding as if quoting some
mathematical equations is a MODEL for the action. It is not. Math is
NOT reality. Math isn't even a MODEL for reality. And math is
certainly NOT an "explanation" of anything. It only show a certain
correspondence between man-made mathematical systems and some observed
data. They are not the same or equivalent.

So barfing out Maxwells equations and saying that "explains it all" is
nonsense. In fact, you have failed to read what I wrote because most
of you are barfing maxwell's equations in non-causal form which means
that they don't even apply as MATH let alone as reality! Didn't you
guys get the part about how a B field or an A field is NOT causal to
the induced electrokinetic field?

So here' s the question again. What kind of physical phenomena starts
with a current in a given direction and then induces Electric Fields
in the space about that current that are PARALLEL to it and
furthermore fall off in ALL directions as 1/distance from the source
current.  As someone noted Coulomb forces are spherical about the
charge. But forces are directed RADIALLY not parallel to the source.
And of course they do not depend upon the rate of change of the
source.

Again. Personally, I find the whole mechanism of induction weird.  It
depends on the rate of change of the source. It is 1/r and spherical
about the source. BUT at the same time the induced forces are parallel
(or anti-parallel) to the source. What kind of MODEL (not equations)
could explain such a thing?  And note the model of the source current
causing a magnetic field which causes the induction or an vector
magnetic potential that causes the induction forces is clearly WRONG!
The causality relations Between B or A and E are not there. Hint: a
changing B does not cause E and a changing E does not cause B!
