The objectives of this course are to tease out the laws of electromagnetism from our everyday experience by specific examples of how electromagnetic phenomena manifest themselves. We want to be able:
To describe, in words, the ways in which various concepts in electromagnetism come into play in particular situations;
To represent these electromagnetic phenomena and fields mathematically in those situations;
And to predict outcomes in other similar situations.
The overall goal is to use the scientific method to come to understand the enormous variety of electromagnetic phenomena in terms of a few relatively simple laws.

Dipole in Field
The current carrying coil above
will move 1. upwards 2. downwards 3. stay where it is because the total force is zero PRS20
Loop in Changing Field
The magnetic field through a wire
loop is pointed upwards and increasing with time. The induced current in the coil is
1. Clockwise as seen from the top
2. Counterclockwise PRS20
Loop in Changing Field
The magnetic field through a
circular wire loop is pointed upwards and decreasing with time. The induced current in the coil is 1. Clockwise as seen from the top 2. Counterclockwise PRS20
When the coil is below the magnet and
moving downwards. This induces a current as pictured. The I ds x B force on the coil is
