  2. Common mode current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Mode_Current

    Common mode current cause multiconductors to act or behave like a single conductor. In electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), there are two common terms that will be found in many electromagnetic interference discussions or considered as fundamental concepts, those are Differential Mode and Common Mode. Those terms are related to coupling mechanisms.

  3. List of textbooks in electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    For undergraduates, there are several widely used textbooks, including David Griffiths' Introduction to Electrodynamics and Electricity and Magnetism by Edward Purcell and David Morin. [5] Also at an undergraduate level, Richard Feynman 's classic Lectures on Physics is available online to read for free.

  4. List of unsolved problems in physics - Wikipedia

    The following is a list of notable unsolved problems grouped into broad areas of physics. [1]Some of the major unsolved problems in physics are theoretical, meaning that existing theories seem incapable of explaining a certain observed phenomenon or experimental result.

  5. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    Electric field from positive to negative charges. Gauss's law describes the relationship between an electric field and electric charges: an electric field points away from positive charges and towards negative charges, and the net outflow of the electric field through a closed surface is proportional to the enclosed charge, including bound charge due to polarization of material.

  6. Quantization of the electromagnetic field - Wikipedia

    The energy content of this volume element at 5 km from the station is 2.1 × 1010 × 0.109 = 2.3 × 10 −11 J, which amounts to 3.4 × 10 14 photons per (). Since 3.4 × 10 14 > 1, quantum effects do not play a role. The waves emitted by this station are well-described by the classical limit and quantum mechanics is not needed.

  7. Classical Electrodynamics (book) - Wikipedia

    Classical Electrodynamics is a textbook written by theoretical particle and nuclear physicist John David Jackson.The book originated as lecture notes that Jackson prepared for teaching graduate-level electromagnetism first at McGill University and then at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. [1]

  8. Thomson problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_problem

    The global minimization of () over all possible configurations of N distinct points is typically found by numerical minimization algorithms. Thomson's problem is related to the 7th of the eighteen unsolved mathematics problems proposed by the mathematician Steve Smale — "Distribution of points on the 2-sphere". [ 2 ]

  9. Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics

    Physics, as with the rest of science, relies on the philosophy of science and its "scientific method" to advance knowledge of the physical world. [88] The scientific method employs a priori and a posteriori reasoning as well as the use of Bayesian inference to measure the validity of a given theory. [ 89 ]
