Course objectives
The course enables students to deepen their knowledge of the basic principles of electricity and magnetism and to become familiar with their applications in practice. - Electrostatics - electric charge, electric field, Coulomb's law, electric field strength; - Work in electrostatic field, electric potential, electric voltage, conductor and insulator in electrostatic field; capacitance of conductor, capacitors; electrostatic phenomena in practice; - Origin of electric current - electric current as an agency and as a physical quantity, sources of electric voltage; electric current in metals - Ohm's law, el. Resistance of a conductor, connecting resistors; - Ohm's law for a closed circuit, load characteristics of a source; regulation of current in a circuit - rheostat and potentiometer; measurement of resistance of a resistor; Kirchhoff's laws; electrical work and power in a direct current circuit, Joule's heat; - Conduction of electric current in semiconductors - types of semiconductors, PN junction, diode, transistor, rectifier, basic electronics; - Stationary magnetic field - magnetic field of permanent magnet and conductor and coil flowing with current, mag. force, mag. induction; interaction of parallel conductors with current, definition of ampere; particles with charge in magnetic field, Hall effect, Lorentz force; - Magnetic properties of substances, magnetic hysteresis; magnetic materials in practice - electromagnetic relay, galvanometer; - Nonstationary magnetic field - magnetic induction flux, Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, Lenz's law, induced current, eddy currents; self and mutual induction, transient processes; magnetic field energy of the coil; - Alternating current - sources of alternating current, simple alternating current circuits, series and parallel RLC circuit; - AC power; AC rms current and voltage; Power Engineering - AC generator, three phase AC system, electric motor, transformer, power transmission; - Electromagnetic oscillations and waves - electromagnetic oscillator, natural and forced oscillations, resonance; generation of electromagnetic waves, electromagnetic dipole, propagation of electromagnetic waves through space, electromagnetic spectrum, transmission of information by electromagnetic waves; - Maxwell's equations - generalization of partial laws, basic consequences
