Lecture

Conservative force: Electrostatics

Description

This lecture covers the concept of conservative forces, focusing on the Coulomb force and its relation to electric fields. It introduces incremental work along a path due to a force, the definition of a conservative force, and the application of Stokes' theorem. The lecture concludes with the derivation of one of Maxwell's equations in static form and explores specific field configurations allowed by this equation.
