Electromagnetic Field Theory Fundamentals

Abstract

What is a field? Is it a scalar field or a vector field? What is the nature of a field? Is it a continuous or a rotational field? How is the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying coil? How does a capacitor store energy? How does a piece of wire (antenna) radiate or receive signals? How do electromagnetic fields propagate in space? What really happens when electromagnetic energy travels from one end of a hollow pipe (waveguide) to the other? The primary purpose of this text is to answer some of these questions pertaining to electromagnetic fields.
