It outlines how these theorems are applied to convert Maxwell's equations between forms, detailing integral expressions for key laws like Faraday's and Ampere's. The text further includes practical examples demonstrating the use of Gauss's and Ampere's laws to calculate electric and magnetic fields, complemented by sketches to aid comprehension of Maxwell's equations.

      Maxwell's first equation, which describes the electrostatic field, is derived immediately from Gauss's theorem, which in turn is a consequence of Coulomb's inverse square law. Gauss's theorem states ...Maxwell's first equation, which describes the electrostatic field, is derived immediately from Gauss's theorem, which in turn is a consequence of Coulomb's inverse square law. Gauss's theorem states that the surface integral of the electrostatic field D over a closed surface is equal to the charge enclosed by that surface.
