Thank you for your response jasonRF, I will look into Ohio State. Any other suggestions?

Hello Everyone, I just want to get an idea about which schools offer the best programs for antenna engineering. I'm an electrical engineering undergrad wanting to get a masters in electrical engineering with an emphasis in antenna design and/or rf/microwave engineering (circuits and...

Ahh I see now I was missing r = 2 in the the CD line integral, now Stoke's theorem can be verified. Thank you very much guys!

True, but isn't \overrightarrow{dl} = \widehat{\phi}r d\phi for path AB and \overrightarrow{dl} = -\widehat{\phi} r d\phi for path CD? The after dot product, I obtain the integrals previously?

Homework Statement Assume a vector field:\textbf{F} = \widehat{r} 2r sin\phi + \widehat{\phi} r^2 cos\phi a) Verify the Stokes's theorem over the ABCD contour shown in Fig. 1 . b) Can F be expressed as the gradient of a scalar? Explain My problems results in not being able to verify...

Hey there! I'm currently taking Introductory Physics: Electricity & Magnetism. I never seen this material before, and heard many awful stories. So, my question is whether I should hire a tutor or not? I'm worried that I might become stuck as the topics increase in difficulty. What do guys suggest?

Okay, first you will have review or relearn some mathmatics: physics and math go hand in hand. Can't have one without the other. Which Physics are you willing to study? Based on your post you said wanted to learn "High School" physics. Automatically from this, you will want to learn/review...

Go for Electrical Engineering. It's easier to switch from EE to Physics. But it's harder to switch from Physics to EE. Why? +More Job Prospects +Can go to Graduate School for Physics, Math, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering . . . +Will help you understand your father's work/business...

Yes that is true. . . Then I would just focus on calculus. Calculus is easy to self study than physics imho.

I'm currently a high school senior (college freshman this coming fall), but if all goes well. . . Summer 2010 1. Math Methods for Physics (introduction to physics with calculus) 2. Introduction to Psychology Fall 2010 quarter 1. Mutlivariable Calculus 2. Phyiscs 1 (Mechanics) 3...

Here's a book I found: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0030960207/?tag=pfamazon01-20 since you never had a physics course before, this might be helpful. At my university I'm taking a physics course this summer and they will probably use this book. (I'm currently a high school senior about to...

Study groups wouldn't be a bad idea. But . . . "Learning how to solve problems is absolutely essential; you don't know physics unless you can do physics." (Freedman) You have to keep solving physics problems. The concepts will then stick in your head. 1. Read the book 2. Go to the...

Or you could look into Multivariable Calculus.

Anyone can learn calculus, however, it requires will-power and determination. You need a solid background in precalculus. That is all. To learn calculus you should take a look at these lecture videos: http://press.princeton.edu/video/banner/ They helped me get an A in calculus. As for a...
