In the beginning, vector algebra and calculus together with orthogonal coordinate systems will be discussed. Course Goals and Student Learning Objectives This course provides the basic knowledge of electrostatics and magnetostatics. The course begins with vector algebra, coordinate systems including Cartesian, Cylindrical and Spherical Coordinates. Coordinate transformations are also discussed. Next, vector andCourse Name, Number, Semester, and Year Page 2 of 6 scalar calculus including gradient, divergence and curl operations are introduced. Line, surface and volume integrals are reviewed.This provides the students with basic mathematical tools to learn the following physical and engineering concepts. Following are the electromagnetic topics that are covered: • Maxwell’s equations • Charge and Current distributions • Coulomb’s Law, Gauss’s Law • Electric Energy and Potential • Conductors • Dielectrics and Capacitance • Method f Images, Boundary Conditions • Poisson’s and Laplace’s Equations • Biot-Savart Law • Ampere’s Circuital Law • Magnetic Vector Potential • Inductance, Magnetic Energy and Force.
