Fundamentals of Physics: Electricity and Magnetism

Electricity and magnetism power our modern world, from the smartphones in our pockets to the global energy grid. Understanding these fundamental forces is key to unlocking how physical systems interact and function. This text-based course guides you from absolute beginner to a confident grasp of core electromagnetic principles, helping you build a strong foundation for exams, academic studies, or personal curiosity. You will start with the absolute basics of electric charge and Coulomb's law before systematically exploring how currents flow and how magnetic fields are generated. What you'll learn: Understand the foundational concepts of electric charge, electric fields, and electrostatic forces; Calculate electric potential, capacitance, and analyze simple direct current (DC) circuits; Explore magnetic fields, magnetic forces, and the behavior of moving charges; Apply Faraday's law of induction to understand modern technologies like wireless charging; Learn the core principles of alternating current (AC) and electromagnetic waves; Practice solving fundamental physics problems with structured, step-by-step written examples. The course begins with essential definitions and theoretical concepts before moving into practical problem-solving and modern real-world applications. Designed for beginners, students, and physics enthusiasts, this course requires no advanced mathematics or prior physics background.
