problem

In an inertial Cartesian coordinate system, a semi-infinite perfect conductor moves at a constant velocity `vv`. The region `x>vtx > vt` is the conductor, while `x<vtx < vt` is the vacuum. A linearly polarized monochromatic plane electromagnetic wave is incident along the `+x+x`-direction. The incident wave's electric field is given by: `Ei(x,t)=E0cos(ω(txc))y^\vec{E}_i(x,t) = E_0 \cos\left( \omega (t - \frac{x}{c}) \right) \hat{y}` where `ω\omega` is the angular frequency of the incident light, and `cc` is the speed of light. The vacuum permeability is `μ0\mu_0`. Find an equation for the surface current density \\(\\vec{J}(t)\\) on the conductor (as observed in the given coordinate system) in terms of the parameters \\(E_0\\), \\(v\\), \\(c\\), \\(\\omega\\), \\(\\mu_0\\) and the time \\(t\\). Express the answer as a vector by providing the direction in terms of `x^\hat{x}` and `y^\hat{y}`. Think step by step and solve the problem below. At the end of your response, write your final answer on a new line starting with “FINAL ANSWER”. It should be an answer to the question such as providing a number, mathematical expression, formula, or entity name, without any extra commentary or providing multiple answer attempts.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
In an inertial Cartesian coordinate system, a semi-infinite perfect conductor moves at a constant velocity `v`. The region `x>vt` is the conductor, while `x<vt` is the vacuum. A linearly polarized monochromatic plane electromagnetic wave is incident along the `+x`-direction.

The incident wave's electric field is given by:

`(E)→_(i)(x,t)=E₀cos(ω(t−(x)/(c)))(y)^` where `ω` is the angular frequency of the incident light, and `c` is the speed of light. The vacuum permeability is `μ₀`.

Express the answer as a vector by providing the direction in terms of `(x)^` and `(y)^`.

In an inertial Cartesian coordinate system, a semi-infinite perfect conductor moves at a constant velocity `\(v\)`. The region `\(x > vt\)` is the conductor, while `\(x < vt\)` is the vacuum. A linearly polarized monochromatic plane electromagnetic wave is incident along the `\(+x\)`-direction.

The incident wave's electric field is given by:

`\(\vec{E}_i(x,t) = E_0 \cos\left( \omega (t - \frac{x}{c}) \right) \hat{y}\)` where `\(\omega\)` is the angular frequency of the incident light, and `\(c\)` is the speed of light. The vacuum permeability is `\(\mu_0\)`.
