Solving Electric Field Vector Problems Using Gauss's Law

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the application of Gauss's Law to solve electric field vector problems and the challenge of finding relevant practice problems. The user is specifically seeking examples that utilize direct vectors in Maxwell's equations, particularly for calculating charge density. They mention using "Elements of Electromagnetics" as their primary textbook and express the need for additional resources that provide similar problems for effective exam preparation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Gauss's Law and its application in electromagnetism
  • Familiarity with Maxwell's equations and their implications
  • Knowledge of vector calculus, particularly divergence
  • Experience with electromagnetic theory textbooks
NEXT STEPS
  • Research additional textbooks on electromagnetism that provide problem sets, such as "Introduction to Electrodynamics" by David J. Griffiths
  • Explore online resources or video lectures that cover electric field vector problems using Gauss's Law
  • Practice calculating divergence of electric fields and its relation to charge density
  • Look for problem-solving workshops or forums focused on Maxwell's equations and electromagnetism
USEFUL FOR

Students preparing for exams in electromagnetism, educators seeking additional teaching resources, and anyone looking to deepen their understanding of electric field vector problems 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.
