I'm looking for a book that describes the quantum field theory without going deeply in the theory with formulas or complex description of the mathematics under the theory.
I know that this theory is really complex and it needs a deep knowledge of quantum physics in order to be understood.
But...
So I figured to get e-field at point (4,4,0), I need to find the resultant e-field from the negatively charged particle and the plate
##E_{resultant}=E_{particle}+E_{plate}##
##E_{particle}=\frac{kq}{d^2}=\frac{(9*10^9)(-2*10^-6)}{4^2}=-1125N/C##
Now for the plate is where I'm confused.
If this...

Common diagrams for the magnetic and electric field components of EMR show the fields at right angles in space with peaks aligned along the axis of propogation, for example Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation.

The particle is moving under a force field with the potential energy equation described above. I find it logical that Newton's Laws can be used as in the question itself it is stated that the velocity is quite small and we could approximate its subsequent motion via the notions of Classical...
I want to know the total energy contained in a magnetic field due to a long wire (just consider a 1m segment) as a 1amp current is turned on starting at time zero. I'm assuming zero turn-on time for convenience. At t=0 the cylindrical field is formed and I wish to know the total energy as a...
i've started from this I1=I2
then
I1= JA1=##\frac {E l} R##
I2= JA2=##\frac {E_2 l} R##
but can't get anything useful relating them. Am i forgetting any other useful formula?

So far the best I've been able to come up with is to use ##\vec{B} = \mu_0 \vec{H}## which gives me
i_c = H 2\pi r
j_c = \frac{H 2\pi r}{\pi r^2} = \frac{2H}{r}
\therefore B = \mu_0 \frac{r j_c}{2}
I'm fairly confident this is just terrible math and physics on my behalf but I'm struggling to...
Hello, as part of the study of fields with central forces, I came across with fields called power law, defined by F = - K/r ^ n u

Hi all, so I had this problem and on the exam and I got a solution but I had an mass-term in there which wasn't given.

Then I used ##rho* \frac{A}{4a} ## for the resistance and divided the Voltage by that to get the current.
I then...

I'm unclear on what exactly an annihilation or creation operator looks like in QFT. In QM these operators for the simple harmonic oscillator had an explicit form in terms of
$$
\hat{a}^\dagger = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\left(- \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}q} + q \right),\;\;\;\hat{a} =...
So I figured out the potential is: dV = (1/(4*Pi*Epsilon_0))*[λ dl/sqrt(z^2+a^2)]
.
From that expression: We can figure out that since its half a ring we have to integrate from 0 to pi*a, so we would get:
V = (1/(4*Pi*Epsilon_0))*[λ {pi*a]/sqrt(z^2+a^2)]
In that expression: a = sqrt(x^2+y^2)...

I tried to work out both a) and b), but I am not sure if I am correct. I drew a picture with a sphere around q first with radius r and then with radius 3r.

Since ##A=4πr^2##, I substituted this in the equation and solved for E giving me...
Hello! I know this is a very general question (and I am really a very beginner in the field) so I am sorry if it is dumb, but here it goes. In Schwarz book on QFT, at the end of Section 14.4 (path integrals chapter) he says: "We do not know if QED exists, or if scalar ##\phi^4## exists, or even...
According to general relativity, gravity is simply the side-effect of bending the geometry of space-time. As a thought experiment imagine a 3D image being projected from a 2D hologram - the distance between the actual 2D pixels in the 2D plane always remains constant, yet depending on the shape...

I thought that a nearly parallel entry path would result in a helix of very small, but constant, radius. I would not expect the electrons to focus at a point, but continue along the infinite helix. What have I missed?
Which is better to use? The equation for the area or the circumference of a circle?

I believe the answer is incorrect, reasons:
The answer assumes that electric field will exist .
But this is not the case , until and unless there is a bipolarity there cannot be an electric field ( in case of isolated charged objects, the field exists because the bipolarity is separated by a...
Hello! In several of the derivations I read so far in my QFT books (M. Schawarz, Peskin and Schroeder) they use the fact that "we can safely assume that the fields die off at ##x=\pm \infty##" in order to drop boundary terms. I am not sure I understand this statement in terms of QFT. A field in...

We are given: q1 = +2.0 x 10-5 C, q2 = q3 = -3.0 x 10-5 C, r31 = r21 = 2 m
a) We start by finding the electric force between q3 to q1 and q2 to q1
FE31 = k * q1 * q3 / r312
FE31 = (9.0 x 109 Nm2/C2) * (+2.0 x 10-5 C) * (3.0 x 10-5 C) / (2 m)2
FE31 = 1.35 N
FE21 = k * q1 * q2 / r212
Since...
