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 . |

... position in space , or a position vector . Another position in the same system might be called x ' . In other courses the reader may have used the symbols r and r ' for this purpose . So , for example , a function of position in our ...
... position vector in spher- ical coordinates , 15 x = rt . ( 2.66 ) We may also express ( x , y , z ) in ( r , 0 , 0 ) , x = r sin cos , y = r sin sin , z = r cos 0 . ( 2.67 ) EXAMPLE 7 The unit basis vectors ↑ , ô , ô of spherical ...
... position of q at the retarded time tr . To compare with the potential calculated by the Lorentz transformation , we must rewrite V ( x , t ) in terms of the position of q at the ob- servation time t . Refer to Fig . 15.15 . P is the ...
