（Abilities and Skills）
・The ability and skills to specify necessary theories and methods for consideration of issues.

Class Objectives
/Class Outline The purpose of this course is to understand the fundamental concepts of phenomena related to electricity in electromagnetism. For this purpose, practice problems for each item are imposed as report assignments, and quizzes are also given as appropriate.
The goal of "knowledge and understanding" : To be able to visualize the phenomena and principles of electromagnetism. Concretely, it must be possible to show it in a graph. The goal of "ability/skill" : To show an equation using laws and to be able to explain it logically in a logical manner.

Class Schedule 1st Guidance, Overview of Electromagnetism
2nd Mathematical Preparation: Vector Analysis
3rd Coulomb force and electric field
4th Superposition of electric fields, lines of electric force
5th Gauss' law, various electric fields
6th Differential form of Gauss' law
7th Potential
8th Various electric potentials
9th The vortex-free law of electrostatic fields
10th Stokes' theorem
11th Laplace's equation and Poisson's equation

Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review Electromagnetism at university is somewhat abstract, with heavy use of mathematical expressions for describing fields in three-dimensional space. Therefore, it is important to understand the content through solving the exercises, so we will also explain the exercises a lot. You will study with an emphasis on review. In addition, for each item content, we will assign practice problems related to the lecture as a report. The content will be a review, so please understand it well.
In addition, a quiz (mini-test) will be given once every few times.

Requirements It is desirable to have taken Fundamental Physics I and II, but we will consider those who have not taken them.
It is strongly recommended that you also take Exercise in Physical Sciences I and Basic Experimental Methods for Physics / Fundamental Laboratory Work in Physics.

Grading Method Final examination 70% Report and mini-test 30%
