Thank you, I was an art major in college, and now find myself doing a fair amount of electrical load calculations, which weren't exactly covered in my drawing classes. This was very helpful, not so much for doing the calculations, but rather for understanding what exactly I'm calculating WHEN I do them. Terrific work!

Maxwell's Equations are a set of 4 complicated equations that describe the world of electromagnetics. These equations describe how electric and magnetic fields propagate, interact, and how they are influenced by objects. Essential to learn specially for those researching electromagnetic therapy and magnetic field therapy technologies. Specially those who ask dumb questions!

Thanks! I have also confirmed it mathematically now. I first was confused because 1/r^2 seemed to have non-zero divergence using the definition of the divergence. However, the definition of divergence is different in polar coords. Once applied, it yields 0. Converting my E example to orthogonal coords also gives 0 with "usual" def. of convergence, i.e. d/dx + d/dy + d/dz. Makes sense now

Answer 2/2 Thus when we calculate the new potential and fields of moving charges, they depend both on the velocity and acceleration of the charges. The acceleration terms fall off at 1/r (for each mag and elec) while all other terms fall off quicker. Thus the fields produced by accelerating charges are still present very far from the source and we call this radiation. Note E*B is (1/r)(1/r) = 1/r^2 and we all know that radiation falls off at 1/r^2.

Thanks for the cool video. I fail to understand, however, why div(D) = 0 outside the charge. It would seem to me that, because the magnitude of E decreases quadratically over distance, the div(D) in a vicinity of a charge shouldn't be zero, because there's a change in the field along R. What did miss?

For the Maxwell equations, the divergence equations are all SCALAR (non-vector) results ; the curl equations are all VECTOR (non-scalar) results. Also the (4) basic Maxwell equations are the work of Oliver Heaviside that reduces the original Maxwell equations from (20) equations with (20) variables down to the form we know of today as the SIMPLIFIED Maxwell equations with (4) equations and (4) variables (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Heaviside#Innovations_and_discoveries).
