Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around a request for specific problems from the textbook "EM Fields" by Wangsness, as the original poster is currently without the book. The subject area pertains to electromagnetism, specifically focusing on problems related to the course material.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • The original poster expresses urgency regarding the need for specific problem numbers from the textbook, indicating a reliance on classmates for assistance. Some participants discuss the challenges of sharing problems without the context of the textbook equations, while others reflect on the quality of the textbook itself.

Discussion Status

Participants are actively engaging in the discussion, with some offering to assist by sending the requested problems. There is a sense of urgency due to the approaching deadline, and while guidance is being offered, there is no explicit consensus on how to best address the original poster's situation.

Contextual Notes

The original poster mentions a tight deadline for submission and expresses frustration over the delay in receiving the textbook. There is an implication that the problems are interconnected with specific equations in the text, which complicates the request for assistance.

Yup another "oh crap I don't have the book" issue. EM Fields, Wangsness

my elements of solid state physics book finally came in the mail but now I need my EM book

If you have it I just need the questions, the book got returned to sender so I need to wait longer for it than expected(I'm not having ANY luck with that this semester)

Anyways, Wangsness' EM Fields, 2nd ed.

1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.9, 1.10, 1.13, 1.15, 1.23, 1.24

I've already sent emails to classmates but they suck at checking e-mails sometimes

Hmm, that IS a lot of problems to type out, but I'd appreciate it forrrevverrrrr

Emailing you the problems wouldn't do you any good, they refer to equations in the text by number.

I love Wangsness as a text and if I didn't I would sell it to you. I consider it to be the best text E&M text out there at junior/senior undergrad level.
 
Well unfortunately I'm in a jam 'cuz it's due tomorrow(I expected the book by Friday, got the oops we screwed you email on Friday, and was indisposed alllll Saturday)

if you could just e-mail them I'll try my luck without the pretty numbered equations(the vector and vector calculus and math review of chapter 1 is really similar to what's in my mechanics text's chapter it seems, I could probably figure out what I needed)e-mail's schattenjaeger@verizon.net I'll love you foreverrrrr
 
You're my hero!
