Publisher's Synopsis
This essential study guide is designed for students enrolled in an electromagnetics or electrodynamics course. The textbook includes problems with detailed solutions to enhance students' understanding of the subject matter. It features partially and fully solved exercises and hints for required formulas and answers. This structure enables students to practice independently while guiding them through problem-solving methods. The material covered in the book includes the cartesian, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems; the conversions between the coordinate systems; gradient, divergence, curl, and Laplacian operators; electric flux and electric field; electric potential; electric potential energy due to discrete and continuous charge distributions; polarization and electric field in dielectrics; boundary conditions for electric current and electric and magnetic fields; flat, cylindrical, and spherical capacitors and resistors; method of image charge for grounded conductors and isolated conductors; magnetic flux and field due to linear, surface, and volume currents; electromagnetic force and torque; Ampere's circuital law; magnetic energy; magnetic vector potential; magnetization in magnetic materials; method of image current in magnetostatics; and electromagnetic induction.
With its comprehensive solutions, multiple problem-solving approaches, and clear explanations of concepts, this hands-on guide will help improve students' problem-solving skills and foster a solid understanding of electromagnetics. Additionally, it serves as a valuable resource for instructors in developing questions, tests, and quizzes.
