Maxwell's Equations and Electromagnetic Waves - Lecture 15

Explore the second part of a lecture on Maxwell's Equations and Electromagnetic Waves from Yale University's Fundamentals of Physics II course. Delve into the physical meaning of wave equation components and their applications. Learn how to derive the power carried by electromagnetic waves. Discover why Maxwell's equations are inherently consistent with relativity, unlike Newton's laws. Engage in a thought experiment using relativity to deduce the existence of magnetism. Gain insights into solving Maxwell's equations, the origin of electromagnetic waves, and the relationship between relativity and electromagnetism in this comprehensive 1-hour 10-minute video lecture.
