00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,260
So before we start with the Maxwell's equations, let me tell you about the general philosophy.

2
00:00:06,060 --> 00:00:11,760
So in the previous section, we have learned that electric and magnetic fields are mainly generated

3
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,980
by charges and by currents.

4
00:00:14,970 --> 00:00:21,540
So the idea of the Maxwell equations is to just take all of the charges and all of the currents in the

5
00:00:21,540 --> 00:00:25,730
whole space, and for this we will make a density out of them.

6
00:00:25,740 --> 00:00:34,040
We will consider the charge density of our and the current density g of art that can also be time dependent.

7
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:41,160
And then we take these charged densities and current densities and they will enter the Maxwell's equations

8
00:00:41,430 --> 00:00:46,950
and you will see you will just need these two quantities to calculate the electric field and the magnetic

9
00:00:46,950 --> 00:00:49,140
field based on these equations.
