A university-level electromagnetism textbook (W. H. Freeman, 1988) kept in the physics book downloads folder. The contents list covers vector operators, phasors, electrostatics, electric circuits, relativity, magnetic fields and materials, Maxwell's equations, plane and guided waves, and radiation and antennas. The extracted text shows only the front matter and the start of chapter 1 on gradient, flux and divergence; it is a book by others, not Phil's own writing.

11.1 THE UNIQUENESS THEOREM FOR
ELECTROSTATIC FIELDS
According totheuniqueness theorem forelectrostatic fields, there cannot
exist more than one potential V(x,y,z)thatsatisfiesbothPoisson's equation and agiven setofboundary conditions. This theorem is
important because itleaves usfree touseanymethod, even intuition, to
, find V.Ifwecan, somehow, discover afunction V(x, y,z)that meets
these two requirements, then itistheonly possible potential function.
Several proofs ofthistheorem areknown, each one based onitsown
particular setofassumptions. We simply assume that the uniqueness
theorem always applies.

PROBLEMS —261
This second chapter onrelativity concerns afew immediate consequences
ofthe Lorentz transformation. The Lorentz contraction makes anobject
appear shortened inthedirection ofitsmotion, while time dilation makes
atime interval onamoving object appear longer for astationary
observer. However, amoving clock can also appear torun fast, aswe
shall see. We end this chapter with thetransformation ofavelocity.
14.1 TRANSFORMATION OF A LENGTH.
THE LORENTZ CONTRACTION
Imagine that observer 0’onreference frame S"fixes aruler oflength fy
onthex’-axis ofS’sothat itsextremities are atx’=0 and x'=ly, The
quantity [yisthelength oftheruler, asmeasured initsown reference
frame, andiscalled itsproper length. According to0,theruler sweeps
theshaded area inFig. 14-1

Assuming that magnetic monopoles donot exist (Sec. 18.1), oratleast
that the netmagnetic charge density iseverywhere zero, allmagnetic
fields result from electric currents, and the lines ofBforeach element of
current are circles, asinFig. 18-3. Thus the net outward flux ofB
through anyclosed surface iszero:
[a-as-0 (18-18)
Applying thedivergence theorem, itfollows that
v-B=0. (18-19) Ss‘These arealternate forms ofoneofMaxwell's equations. Observe that
Eq. 18-19 establishes arelation between thespace derivatives ofBata

apply Kirchhoff’s laws tocircuits comprising self- and mutual induc-

itconsists ofaninteraction between branches. However, with either one

becomes straightforward.

PROBLEMS 487
this isthe last chapter dealing specifically with magnetic fields. It
concerns energy and macroscopic forces. We shall find several expres-
sions forthemagnetic energy stored inafield, andthen deduce theforces
exerted onacurrent-carrying body situated inamagnetic field that
originates elsewhere. Asinmost ofthematerial that wehave studied
until now, werestrict ourselves tolow frequencies and tocurrents that
result from themotion offree charges.

complex plane, allofdifferent magnitudes anddifferent phases, rotating at
different velocities. Their vector sum isclearly zero.
The same reasoning applies toanyobject, sayawhite wall illuminated
with incoherent light. The radiation that reaches agiven eone comes from
anarea that ialarge number ofwavelengths indiameter. There again, the
netfield atthecone should bezero, and thewall should appear black.
