ElectromagnetismElectromagnetism sets a new standard in physics education. Throughout the book, the theory is illustrated with real-life applications in modern technology. It also includes detailed work examples and step-by-step explanations to help readers develop their problem-solving strategies and skills and consolidate their understanding. In addition to a meticulous development of thse traditional, analytical mathematical approaches, readers are also introduced to a range of techniques required for solving problems using computers. Electromagnetism provides an ideal preparation for readers who plan advanced studies in electrodynamics as well as those moving into industry or engineering . |

Gerald L. Pollack, Daniel R. Stump. E FIGURE 6.1 An induced atomic dipole . The atom on the left is unpolarized . When a field is applied , the nucleus is pulled in the direction of E and the electrons in the opposite direction , so the ...
... atom itself Eself plus the field produced by all other sources Eother . The field that polarizes the atom is Eother , So p = α ( E ( x ) - Eself ) ; the atom does not polarize itself , so we discount Eself . ( 6.34 ) In a dilute gas the ...
... atom with a permanent magnetic moment will tend to align with B or H because of the torque m x B on the dipole moment . In paramag- netic materials the permanent dipole moment is greater than the induced dipole moment , so M ∞ + H and ...
