Where Can I Find Comprehensive Electromagnetism Notes Online?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for educational notes and resources related to physics, particularly electromagnetism. Users express difficulty finding these materials through Google and request assistance. Several links to lecture notes and free educational resources from major universities are shared, including comprehensive materials from institutions like the University of Texas, MIT, and Cambridge. Additionally, there is a mention of a free book available at a specific URL. The conversation also touches on the organization of content, indicating that contributions related to alternative physics should be directed to a specific subforum for clarity.

I split JohnBarchak's contribution to its own thread in Theory Development, and it can be found here.

John, please note that the appropriate place for "alternate physics sites" is the TD Forum, which is a subforum of General Physics. Thank you.
 
This is from Griffiths' Electrodynamics, 3rd edition, page 352. I am trying to calculate the divergence of the Maxwell stress tensor. The tensor is given as ##T_{ij} =\epsilon_0 (E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} E^2)+\frac 1 {\mu_0}(B_iB_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} B^2)##. To make things easier, I just want to focus on the part with the electrical field, i.e. I want to find the divergence of ##E_{ij}=E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij}E^2##. In matrix form, this tensor should look like this...
Thread 'Applying the Gauss (1835) formula for force between 2 parallel DC currents'
Please can anyone either:- (1) point me to a derivation of the perpendicular force (Fy) between two very long parallel wires carrying steady currents utilising the formula of Gauss for the force F along the line r between 2 charges? Or alternatively (2) point out where I have gone wrong in my method? I am having problems with calculating the direction and magnitude of the force as expected from modern (Biot-Savart-Maxwell-Lorentz) formula. Here is my method and results so far:- This...
