Electromagnetism - DAMTP

At the atomic scale, electromagnetism (admittedly in conjunction with some basic quantum e ects) governs the interactions between atoms and molecules. It is the force that underlies the periodic table of elements, giving rise to all of chemistry and, through this, much of biology. It is the force which binds atoms together into solids and liquids.

how the particle interacts with each of the four forces. For the force of gravity, this property is mass. For the force of electromagnetism, the property is called electric charge. For the purposes of this course, we can think of electric charge as a real number, q2R. Importantly, charge can be positive or negative. It can also be zero, in which

Lecture 5 Motion of a charged particle in a magnetic field

Classically, in electric and magnetic field, particles experience a Lorentz force: F = q (E + v × B) q denotes charge (notation: q = −e for electron). Velocity-dependent force qv × B very different from that derived from scalar potential, and programme for transferring from classical to quantum mechanics has to be carried out with more care.

electric and magnetic fields that enter in Maxwell’s equations, and the gravitational field governed by Einstein’s equations. Since fields interact with particles, it be-came clear by the late 1920s that an internally coherent account of nature must incorporate quantum concepts for fields as well as for particles.

APPLICATION OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN PHYSICS

We look at lagrangian mechanics. Lagragian mechanics is widely used to solve mechanical problems in physics and when Newton’s formulation of classical mechanics is not convenient. Lagragian mechanics applies to the dynamics of particles, while fields are described using a Lagragian density. We also look at simple electric circuit problems.
