Book(s) with problems on classical electromagnetism

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the search for books containing problems related to classical electromagnetism, specifically referencing "A Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations" by Daniel Fleisch. The user seeks additional resources that include both solved and unsolved problems covering key concepts such as Gauss's Law, Faraday's Laws, and Maxwell's Equations. A recommended book, "Solved Problems in Classical Electromagnetism" by Jerrold Franklin, is highlighted for its structured approach to problem-solving, although its cost is a concern for the user.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of classical electromagnetism principles
  • Familiarity with Maxwell's Equations
  • Knowledge of problem-solving techniques in physics
  • Basic mathematical skills for tackling differential and integral forms
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Solved Problems in Classical Electromagnetism" by Jerrold Franklin
  • Explore additional resources on Gauss's Law and its applications
  • Investigate problem sets available in electromagnetism textbooks
  • Look into online platforms offering electromagnetism exercises and solutions
USEFUL FOR

Students of physics, educators teaching electromagnetism, and anyone seeking to enhance their problem-solving skills in classical electromagnetism.

I started studying the book "A Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations" by Daniel Fleisch some time back. It is an excellent book, giving a very good idea about the main laws of electromagnetism.

I will soon finish the book. Now I need some book(s) which has problems on all the laws in classical electromagnetism, like Gauss's Law on electric and magnetic fields (differential and integral form), Faraday's Laws, Ampere-Maxwell Law, Maxwell's Equations, and others.

It would be helpful if the book contains solved problems as well as unsolved ones.

I recently found this very new one. As far as I can see, it's excellent. It has the problems and (very detailed!) solutions separated. So you can do the problems first yourself, without seeing the solutions before.

That's a bit costly for me at this moment. $1 is about 65 Indian Rupees. So, $60 would be somewhere around Rs. 3900. Maybe I'll buy it later month.

Anyways, thanks for the reference.
 
This book is scheduled for publication this July:
