Introduction

The foundations of modern electromagnetic theory were formulated in 1873


by James Clerk Maxwell, who hypothesized, solely from mathematical
considerations, electromagnetic wave propagation and the idea that light was
a form of electromagnetic energy.

Heinrich Hertz carried out a set of experiments during the period 1887–1891
that validated Maxwell’s theory of electromagnetic waves.
Maxwell’s Equation

Maxwell's Equations are a set of 4 complicated equations that describe the


world of electromagnetics. These equations describe how electric and
magnetic fields propagate, interact, and how they are influenced by
objects.
The Divergence Operator
Divergence at a point (x,y,z) is the measure of
the vector flow out of a surface surrounding
that point.
The Divergence Operator
Divergence at a point (x,y,z) is the measure of
the vector flow out of a surface surrounding
that point.
The Divergence Operator
Divergence at a point (x,y,z) is the measure of
the vector flow out of a surface surrounding
that point.
The Math Behind the Divergence
Divergence is a specific measure of how much
the vector field is changing in the x, y, and z
directions.

Then the
divergence of A
is the sum of
how fast the
vector function
is changing:

Divergence Mathematical Examples

Equation gives us the divergence at every location in space.


That is, if you want to know the divergence at (x,y,z)=(3,2,1)
then we can use equation to see that the divergence of A is
2+6*1 = 8.

for any point in space, the divergence takes a vector function


and produces a single number. This number evaluates whether
the point acts as a source of fields (produces more fields than it
takes in) or as a sink of fields (fields are diminished around the
point).
The Electric Field
Electric Field -which arises due to electric charges that can be
positive or negative.
The Electric Field
The Electric Field (or E-field) at any location X is defined as the
force a charge of +1-Coulomb would experience if it was
placed at location X. This is written as "the E field is the force
per unit charge"
For positive charges (q>0) the E-field points
away from the charge, and for negative
charges the E-field points towards the charge.

The Electric Field has


units (dimensions) of
Newtons/Coulomb
[N/C], which is
equivalent to
Volts/meter [V/m].
Electric Flux Density

The Electric Flux Density is very similar to the


Electric Field, but does not depend on the
material in which we are measuring (that is, it
does not depend on the permittivity.

Note that the D field is a vector field, which


means that at every point in space it has a
magnitude and direction.
Maxwell’s 1st Law == Gauss’ Law
Gauss' Law is the first of Maxwell's Equations which dictates how
the Electric Field behaves around electric charges. Gauss' Law can
be written in terms of the Electric Flux Density and the Electric
Charge Density as:

This equation is known as Gauss' Law in point form. This is true at any
point in space. If there exists electric charge somewhere, then the
divergence of D at that point is nonzero, otherwise it is equal to zero.
Maxwell’s 2nd Law == Gauss’
Magnetism Law

Gauss' Magnetism law states that the divergence of the Magnetic Flux
Density (B) is zero.

Why isn't the divergence of B equal to the magnetic charge density?

No one has ever found magnetic charge. Until this hypothetical magnetic
charge is found, the right side of Gauss' Law for Magnetic Fields will be zero

Because
