Time varying fields and Maxwell's equations


Similarly for the magnetostatic case

                               (5.2a)

                           (5.2b)

                              (5.2c)

It can be seen that for static case, the electric field vectors and and magnetic field vectors and form separate pairs.

In this chapter we will consider the time varying scenario. In the time varying case we will observe that a changing magnetic field will produce a changing electric field and vice versa.

We begin our discussion with Faraday's Law of electromagnetic induction and then present the Maxwell's equations which form the foundation for the electromagnetic theory.
