PHYS 4110 - Electromagnetics

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Physics

Description:

Advanced classical theory of electric and magnetic fields. Topics include: Vector analysis; electrostatics; calculating electric potentials; solving Laplaces equation; multipole expansions; electrostatic fields in matter; magnetostatics; charges in motion; electrodynamics; Faradays law; Maxwells equations. ***COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs)*** At the successful conclusion of this course students will: 1. Applying the concepts of vector calculus to electromagnetic problems. 2. Integrating over a source distribution to calculate time-independent fields and potentials for both electricity and magnetism. 3. Solving for time-independent electric and magnetic potentials and fields using image charges and image currents. 4. Calculating electric and magnetic fields in the presence of matter which can be electrically and magnetically polarized. 5. Calculating time-dependent electric fields using Faraday's law and time-dependent magnetic fields using Maxwell's displacement current.
