Question

Recall the boundary conditions on static E and B at an interface between two materials: E, and B are always continuous, and H is continuous in the absence of free surface current. What boundary condition(s) does this imply for S? Do they make physical sense? An explanation is required.

Answer #1

These boundary conditions should not effect the value of Poynting vector S. As in Poynting vector there is Cross product between E and B so the components of E and B will cross to zero and the final momentum density will remain conserved across the boundary.
