Introductory lecture
Introduction:

• What is electromagnetic ?
It is a term that is used to describe the electric and magnetic force or
effect produced by an electric current.
• What are the application of electromagnetic field?
Transmitters and receivers, industrial sensing ,…..etc
• What are the aim of studying electromagnetic field?
It is essential to understand the prosperities of electromagnetic field
and how to apply them on the specific field.

2. Divergence and gauss’s law for electric and magnetic field.

7. Reflection and refraction of plane waves .
8. Guided waves.
• Electrostatics:
The theory that describes physical phenomena related to the
interaction between stationary electric charges or charge distributions in
space is called electrostatics.
• Coulomb’s law:
It has been found experimentally that in classical electrostatics the
interaction between two stationary electrically charged bodies can be
described in terms of a mechanical force.
• Let us consider the simple case described by Figure 1.1.1.
• Let F denote the force acting on a charged particle with charge q located at x, due
to the presence of a charge q′ located at x′. According to Coulomb’s law this force
is, in vacuum, given by the expression.

the force F is measured in Newton (N), the charges q and q′ in Coulomb (C) [=
Ampère-seconds (As)], and the length |x-x′| in metres (m). The constant ε0 =
107/(4πc2) ≈ 8.8542 × 10-12 Farad per metre (F/m) is the vacuum permittivity and c
≈ 2.9979×108 m/s is the speed of light in vacuum. In CGS units ε0 = 1/(4π) and the
force is measured in dyne, the charge in statcoulomb, and length in centimetres
(cm).
• Instead of describing the electrostatic interaction in terms of a “force action at a distance,” it turns
out that it is often more convenient to introduce the concept of a field and to describe the
electrostatic interaction in terms of a static vectorial electric field Estat defined by the limiting
process

• where F is the electrostatic force, as defined in Equation (1.1), from a net charge q′ on the test
particle with a small electric net charge q. Since the purpose of the limiting process is to assure that
the test charge q does not
influence the field, the expression for Estat does not depend explicitly on q but only on the charge
q′ and the relative radius vector x-x′. This means that we can say that any net electric charge
produces an electric field in the space that surrounds it, regardless of the existence of a second
charge anywhere in this space. Using formulae (1.1) and (1.2), we find that the electrostatic field
Estat at the field point x (also known as the observation point), due to a field-producing charge q′ at
the source point x′, is given by :
• Magnetostatics:
While electrostatics deals with static charges, magnetostatics deals with
stationary currents, i.e., charges moving with constant speeds, and the
interaction between these currents.
• Ampère’s law:
Experiments on the interaction between two small current loops have shown
that they interact via a mechanical force, much the same way that charges
interact. Let F denote such a force acting on a small loop C carrying a current J
located at x, due to the presence of a small loop C′ carrying a current J′
• located at x′. According to Ampère’s law this force is, in vacuum, given
by the expression

• Here dl and dl′ are tangential line elements of the loops C and C′,
respectively, and, in SI units, µ0 = 4π× 10-7 ≈ 1.2566 × 10-6 H/m is the
vacuum permeability. From the definition of ε0 and µ0 (in SI units) we
observe that
