Solving Electric Field Vector Problems Using Gauss's Law

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding problems related to applying Gauss's Law and electric field vectors, particularly in the context of Maxwell's equations. The focus is on seeking additional examples and resources for practice, rather than solving a specific problem.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Exploratory

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses difficulty in finding similar problems online related to applying Gauss's Law to electric field vectors and seeks examples or resources.
  • Another participant suggests that calculating the divergence of the electric field (div E) could provide an answer, though it does not directly address the request for examples.
  • The original poster reiterates the need for more examples and problems related to Maxwell's equations for practice, not just Gauss's Law.
  • Participants discuss the textbook "Elements of Electromagnetics" as a primary resource, with one suggesting that naming textbooks by their authors might be more helpful.
  • There is a suggestion that good sources of problems can be found in other similar textbooks, although no specific titles are provided.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the need for additional examples and resources related to the topic, but there is no consensus on specific textbooks or resources that would be most helpful.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not provided specific assumptions or limitations regarding the types of problems they are looking for, nor have they clarified the scope of the examples needed beyond general references to Maxwell's equations.

Who May Find This Useful

Students preparing for exams in electromagnetism or those seeking additional practice problems related to Gauss's Law and Maxwell's equations.

I'm preparing for exam but it seems I can't find problems similar to this on the internet.

Here I will apply Gauss's law on the electric field vector to get the charge density. but the problem is that I can't find similar examples on the internet that uses direct vectors on Maxwell's equations.

Is there some examples or books or even videos that have similar kind of problem?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Calculation of div E would give you an answer.
 
Thanks but that what I said in "Here I will apply Gauss's law on the electric field vector to get the charge density".

I'm looking for more examples and problems similar in form to this question not in just Gauss's Law but for all the Maxwell's equations. I need it for practice.
 
What textbook are you using? What are its main competitors?

I use "Elements of Electromagnetics" as main book.
 
Usually one names a textbook by its authors, since they all have much the same title.

But my point was that a good source of problems can be found in other, similar textbooks.
