Maxwell Equations, Displacement Current, and Potentials
First-principles derivation of Maxwell's equations, current continuity, and electromagnetic potentials.
First-principles derivation of Maxwell's equations, current continuity, and electromagnetic potentials.
Consider a small wave on the free surface of an incompressible, inviscid liquid of density $\rho$. Take the undisturbed surface as $z=0$, with...
A molecule well inside a liquid is attracted in all directions. A molecule near the surface has fewer neighbours on the vapour side, so work m...
For an incompressible liquid, the volume rate is the same at every cross-section. A gas expands as its pressure falls, so its local volume rat...
A viscous fluid resists relative motion between neighbouring layers. For a Newtonian fluid moving in the $z$ direction with speed $v_z(x)$, th...
An external force changes the relative positions of the particles of a solid. When the force is removed, interatomic forces tend to restore th...
