Biot-Savart’s law magnetic induction, Gauss’s law for magnetic fields, Ampere’s law. Faraday’s induction law. Ampere-Maxwell’s law, Lorentz force. Maxwell's equations (integral and differential forms, boundary conditions). Time-varying electromagnetic fields (electromagnetic waves and waveguiding).
