    How to represent a time varying vector field

    Homework Statement I'm solving for the magnetic potential vector field given a time varying electrical field. It might seem silly, but I don't really understand how to approach the problem since the field varies on both space and time. I'm given the motion of a charged particle. Can someone...

    Need help solving a differential equation for orbit.

    I want to be able to map the position of a planet given initial position, velocity, and acceleration. I know the equation for Gravitational force (Newtonian) is: F=-GMm/r^2 Using Newtons second law this gives: m(d^2x/dt^2)=-GMm/x^2 Then simple Algebra yields: (d^2x/dt^2)+GM/x^2=0 I...
