integrated over cross section area of wire, so
J dV= J x dS x dl=dI x dl
And it becomes I dl cos ω(t - r/v)
Current element is oriented in z direction so
magnetic potential A is also designated as Az

In-Phase & Quadrature Sinusoidal Components
From the trig identity,
we have

From this we may conclude that every sinusoid can be expressed
as the sum of a sine function (phase zero) and a cosine function
(phase π/2)

In general, “phase quadrature” means “90 degrees out of phase,”

, relative phase shift of ± π/2

The proof is obtained
by working the previous derivation backwards

Note that they only
differ by a relative degree phase shift
