[Vo]:Does Velocity Per Electric Potential Provide an Intuitive Key to Maxwell's Law?

2015-02-26 Thread James Bowery
The broad survey of alternate formulations of Maxwell's Law http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell%27s_equations#Alternative_formulations (which I use in preference to Maxwell's Equation(s)) shows an interesting pattern: In every non-homogeneous formulation, the right hand side shows some

I've been thinking on potential fields again myself. So odd to think an electrostatic scalar field could travel instantaneously, but there's some argument for it, and seemingly some experimental evidence, and potentials are WEIRD. Just look at Ahranov-Bohm Effect. On Thu, Feb 26, 2015 at 8:38 PM,

I'm not at all convinced that the proper intuition of speed per electric potential should be in terms of the speed of the propagation of electric potential. Having said that... (2012) Experimental measurement of electric field propagation indicates that it may be instantaneous: Measuring
