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 . |

... q , and smallest at 0 = л , the point farthest from q . The physical explanation is that a positive charge q attracts from ground only negative charges . The total charge on the conductor may be calculated by integrating ( 4.31 ) over ...
... charges are : 0 , Q ' ; −Q ' , Q ' + Q " ; −Q'- Q " , Q ' + Q " + Q " " . ] Notice how this distribution compares with that in Exercise 4.2 , the analogous planar problem . 4.18 . Any two conductors can be considered to be a capacitor ...
... q . If κ the image charges are approximately q ' = -q and q ' = -q and q ′′ = 0 , the same as for a conducting plane . Of course q ' and q " are fictitious . The real charge consists of the free charge q and the bound charge σ on the ...
