Introduction to electricity and magnetism [electronic resource] : solutions to problems / John Dirk Walecka.

By: Walecka, John Dirk, 1932-.
Material type: materialTypeLabelComputer filePublisher: Singapore : World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd., ©2019Description: 1 online resource (140 p.) : ill.ISBN: 9789811202643.Subject(s): Electricity -- Problems, exercises, etc | Magnetism -- Problems, exercises, etcGenre/Form: Electronic books.DDC classification: 537 Online resources: Access to full text is restricted to subscribers.
Contents:
Electricity -- Coulomb's law -- The electric field -- Gauss' law -- The electrostatic potential -- Electric energy -- Capacitors and dielectrics -- Currents and Ohm's law -- DC circuits -- Review of electricity -- Magnetism -- Vectors -- The magnetic force and field -- Ampere's law -- Electromagnetic induction -- Magnetic materials -- Time-dependent circuits -- Review of magnetism -- Electromagnetism -- Maxwell's equations -- Waves -- Electromagnetic waves -- More electromagnetic waves -- The theory of special relativity -- Review of electromagnetism.
Summary: "The previously published book Introduction to Electricity and Magnetism provides a clear, calculus-based introduction to a subject that together with classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and modern physics lies at the heart of today's physics curriculum. The lectures, although relatively concise, take one from Coulomb's law to Maxwell's equations and special relativity in a lucid and logical fashion. That book contains an extensive set of accessible problems that enhances and extends the coverage. As an aid to teaching and learning, the present book provides the solutions to those problems."-- Publisher's website.
