Covers the fundamental laws governing electric and magnetic fields and some applications. Topics include static electric fields, Gauss's law, static magnetic fields, Ampere's law, time-varying fields, Faraday's law, Maxwell's equations, electromagnetic waves, interactions between fields and materials, and transmission lines. A vector calculus approach is used throughout. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): EP 202 and (MATH 223 or MATH 225 or MATH 276) and (MATH 224 or MATH 226 or MATH 238). Note: This course is open to Geophysics students in the Department of Geological Sciences.
