This book looks at the Faraday-Maxwell-Heaviside conception of stress in a luminiferous medium. It shows how to compute various electromagnetic forces through the notion of mechanical stress. It looks at Maxwell's general equation of electromotive intensity, which is derived through an analysis of the time rate of change of magnetic vector potential, which in turn enables us to analyse phenomena from differing frames of reference. Finally, a selection of topics relating to relativity...
More DescriptionThis book looks at the Faraday-Maxwell-Heaviside conception of stress in a luminiferous medium. It shows how to compute various electromagnetic forces through the notion of mechanical stress. It looks at Maxwell's general equation of electromotive intensity, which is derived through an analysis of the time rate of change of magnetic vector potential, which in turn enables us to analyse phenomena from differing frames of reference. Finally, a selection of topics relating to relativity theory are re-examined from the point of view of an ethereal medium.
