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.
