Introduction To Electricity And Magnetism: Solutions To Problems

by John Dirk Walecka

Overview

The previously published book Introduction to Electricity and Magnetism provides a clear, calculus-based introduction to a subject that together with classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and modern physics lies at the heart of today's physics curriculum. The lectures, although relatively concise, take one from Coulomb's law to Maxwell's equations and special relativity in a lucid and logical fashion. That book contains an extensive set of accessible problems that enhances and extends the coverage. As an aid to teaching and learning, the present book provides the solutions to those problems.
