PHY241H5 • Electromagnetism

This course covers the static properties of electric and magnetic fields using the tools of vector calculus. Topics include electric fields, Gauss' law, electric potential, electric dipole, magnetic fields, Biot-Savart Law, Ampère’s Law, Faraday’s Law, culminating on Maxwell’s equations and electromagnetic waves. Solving Laplace’s equation with simple boundary conditions will accompany the discussion of electric potentials.
