This lecture introduces the fundamental understanding of electromagnetism which is in concept built by the Gauss’s law for
electricity and magnetism, Faraday’s law, and Ampere’s law. In detail, the lectures will focus on electricity and magnetism
before and after the midterm, respectively. The students will understand that nowadays technologies are basically developed
by the concept of electromagnetism. Therefore, the students will not only practice to solve basic problems in the electromagnetism
but also be introduced to the unified equation for the electricity and magnetism, namely Maxwell equation, and its knowledge
to the wider physics concepts.
To understand the concept of electromagnetism in which electric and magnetic field shall induce each other carried by photon.
Fundamentally, students shall understand the electricity and magnetism, including the Physical laws governing them and many
applications coming out of these concepts. The students are also expected to be able to design an analog circuit. The students
will be finally introduced to the importantly Maxwell’s equations and electromagnetic waves. The former is in order for students
to be familiar and confident with physics knowledge and the latter is in order for students to understand the concept of waves
to be taught in the next course such as electromagnetism and element of optics.
