Maxwell's equations explained logically! (Ep: 1 - Power of Gauss's Law)

  • Let's intuitively learn two Maxwell's equations - Gauss's Law - intuitively. And solve in minutes, what Newton couldn't in years.
    The first two Maxwell equations - The Gauss law - comes directly from Coulomb's law. That's right, by rearranging terms and doing some clever arguments, we can logically show that the flux through a closed surface must indeed equal the total charge enclosed by the surface. And in doing so, we will uncover why we define electric flux as the dot product of electric field and the area in the first place.
    Then, we apply this to find the electric field due to a sphere of charge, outside it. Newton did a similar calculation - finding the gravitational field due to sphere of mass - using integrals. You can find the proof of that online Search for Shell theorem.
    But, using Gauss's law, we can find the answer much quicker.

      I had the fortune to read the Feynman Lectures - all three volumes - cover to cover - several (four to be precise) times throughout my life as a physicist for the past four decades. Each time (separated by roughly 5-7 years apart) I read them, the logic seemed so fluid and convincing, and yet every new time I could see new insights that my earlier reading had missed ! Feynman has been my hero since my high-school days (and I am actually no hero-worshiper ) !

    Great presentation as always! Another consequence of gausses law that no one talks about is the fact polarized light is not physically realizable. Only quasipolarized light can exist since em waves must always form closed loops. Plane waves are only mathematically polarized be becauae they extend infinitely. Real light cannot be polarized in a single direction. There are so many interesting consequences of gaussses law!

      Yeah. Start with a point source and radiating out in every direction in phase. Polarized plane waves can work in a 2D horizontal x,y plane (for a circle wavefront in the plane, E is always vertical to the plane while H is always tangential to the circle). But this can not work in a sphere. Consider a vertical slice through the center of the same sphere. A new 2D circle is formed in the x,z plane. Now at Z=0 the H field is in opposite directions for the 2 points of intersection (X,0,0) and (-X,0,0). Now consider what happens as you approach (0,0,Z) on that circle. the 2 H fields are in opposite directions and cancel out.

      It's also true in less obvious light sources such as a "polarized" laser beams. Another interesting consequence off gauses law is that it shows that all light must diverge. (Laser cannot stay collimated forever) Starting from the fact a beam cannot be polarized in a single direction across it's entire width, we can predict the propagation direction of each section of the wavefront from Kdirection= E x B. Depending on the phase of the wavefront you can show that the laser is either diverging or converging(then ultimately diverging again). And this argument all came originating from gauses law

    Conservation of Spatial Curvature:
    Both Matter and Energy described as "Quanta" of Spatial Curvature. (A string is revealed to be a twisted cord when viewed up close.)
    Is there an alternative interpretation of "Asymptotic Freedom"? What if Quarks are actually made up of twisted tubes which become physically entangled with two other twisted tubes to produce a proton? Instead of the Strong Force being mediated by the constant exchange of gluons, it would be mediated by the physical entanglement of these twisted tubes. When only two twisted tubules are entangled, a meson is produced which is unstable and rapidly unwinds (decays) into something else. A proton would be analogous to three twisted rubber bands becoming entangled and the "Quarks" would be the places where the tubes are tangled together. The behavior would be the same as rubber balls (representing the Quarks) connected with twisted rubber bands being separated from each other or placed closer together producing the exact same phenomenon as "Asymptotic Freedom" in protons and neutrons. The force would become greater as the balls are separated, but the force would become less if the balls were placed closer together. Therefore, the gluon is a synthetic particle (zero mass, zero charge) invented to explain the Strong Force. An artificial Christmas tree can hold the ornaments in place, but it is not a real tree.
    String Theory was not a waste of time, because Geometry is the key to Math and Physics. However, can we describe Standard Model interactions using only one extra spatial dimension? What did some of the old clockmakers use to store the energy to power the clock? Was it a string or was it a spring?
    What if we describe subatomic particles as spatial curvature, instead of trying to describe General Relativity as being mediated by particles? Fixing the Standard Model with more particles is like trying to mend a torn fishing net with small rubber balls, instead of a piece of twisted twine.
    Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules:
    “We are all agreed that your theory is crazy. The question which divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct.” Neils Bohr
    (lecture on a theory of elementary particles given by Wolfgang Pauli in New York, c. 1957-8, in Scientific American vol. 199, no. 3, 1958)
    The following is meant to be a generalized framework for an extension of Kaluza-Klein Theory. Does it agree with some aspects of the “Twistor Theory” of Roger Penrose, and the work of Eric Weinstein on “Geometric Unity”, and the work of Dr. Lisa Randall on the possibility of one extra spatial dimension? During the early history of mankind, the twisting of fibers was used to produce thread, and this thread was used to produce fabrics. The twist of the thread is locked up within these fabrics. Is matter made up of twisted 3D-4D structures which store spatial curvature that we describe as “particles"? Are the twist cycles the "quanta" of Quantum Mechanics?
    When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. ( E=hf, More spatial curvature as the frequency increases = more Energy ). What if Quark/Gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks where the tubes are entangled? (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are a part of the quarks. Quarks cannot exist without gluons, and vice-versa. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Charge" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" are logically based on this concept. The Dirac “belt trick” also reveals the concept of twist in the ½ spin of subatomic particles. If each twist cycle is proportional to h, we have identified the source of Quantum Mechanics as a consequence twist cycle geometry.
    Modern physicists say the Strong Force is mediated by a constant exchange of Gluons. The diagrams produced by some modern physicists actually represent the Strong Force like a spring connecting the two quarks. Asymptotic Freedom acts like real springs. Their drawing is actually more correct than their theory and matches perfectly to what I am saying in this model. You cannot separate the Gluons from the Quarks because they are a part of the same thing. The Quarks are the places where the Gluons are entangled with each other.
    Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. The twist in the torus can either be Right-Hand or Left-Hand. Some twisted donuts can be larger than others, which can produce three different types of neutrinos. If a twisted tube winds up on one end and unwinds on the other end as it moves through space, this would help explain the “spin” of normal particles, and perhaps also the “Higgs Field”. However, if the end of the twisted tube joins to the other end of the twisted tube forming a twisted torus (neutrino), would this help explain “Parity Symmetry” violation in Beta Decay? Could the conversion of twist cycles to writhe cycles through the process of supercoiling help explain “neutrino oscillations”? Spatial curvature (mass) would be conserved, but the structure could change.
    =====================
    Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity. If an electron has qualities of both a particle and a wave, it cannot be either one. It must be something else. Therefore, a "particle" is actually a structure which stores spatial curvature. Can an electron-positron pair (which are made up of opposite directions of twist) annihilate each other by unwinding into each other producing Gamma Ray photons?
    Does an electron travel through space like a threaded nut traveling down a threaded rod, with each twist cycle proportional to Planck’s Constant? Does it wind up on one end, while unwinding on the other end? Is this related to the Higgs field? Does this help explain the strange ½ spin of many subatomic particles? Does the 720 degree rotation of a 1/2 spin particle require at least one extra dimension?
    Alpha decay occurs when the two protons and two neutrons (which are bound together by entangled tubes), become un-entangled from the rest of the nucleons
    . Beta decay occurs when the tube of a down quark/gluon in a neutron becomes overtwisted and breaks producing a twisted torus (neutrino) and an up quark, and the ejected electron. The production of the torus may help explain the “Symmetry Violation” in Beta Decay, because one end of the broken tube section is connected to the other end of the tube produced, like a snake eating its tail. The phenomenon of Supercoiling involving twist and writhe cycles may reveal how overtwisted quarks can produce these new particles. The conversion of twists into writhes, and vice-versa, is an interesting process, which is also found in DNA molecules. Could the production of multiple writhe cycles help explain the three generations of quarks and neutrinos? If the twist cycles increase, the writhe cycles would also have a tendency to increase.
    Gamma photons are produced when a tube unwinds producing electromagnetic waves. ( Mass=1/Length )
    The “Electric Charge” of electrons or positrons would be the result of one twist cycle being displayed at the 3D-4D surface interface of the particle. The physical entanglement of twisted tubes in quarks within protons and neutrons and mesons displays an overall external surface charge of an integer number. Because the neutrinos do not have open tube ends, (They are a twisted torus.) they have no overall electric charge.
    Within this model a black hole could represent a quantum of gravity, because it is one cycle of spatial gravitational curvature. Therefore, instead of a graviton being a subatomic particle it could be considered to be a black hole. The overall gravitational attraction would be caused by a very tiny curvature imbalance within atoms.
    In this model Alpha equals the compactification ratio within the twistor cone, which is approximately 1/137.
    1= Hypertubule diameter at 4D interface
    137= Cone’s larger end diameter at 3D interface where the photons are absorbed or emitted.
    The 4D twisted Hypertubule gets longer or shorter as twisting or untwisting occurs. (720 degrees per twist cycle.)
    How many neutrinos are left over from the Big Bang? They have a small mass, but they could be very large in number. Could this help explain Dark Matter?
    Why did Paul Dirac use the twist in a belt to help explain particle spin? Is Dirac’s belt trick related to this model? Is the “Quantum” unit based on twist cycles?
    I started out imagining a subatomic Einstein-Rosen Bridge whose internal surface is twisted with either a Right-Hand twist, or a Left-Hand twist producing a twisted 3D/4D membrane. This topological Soliton model grew out of that simple idea. I was also trying to imagine a way to stuff the curvature of a 3 D sine wave into subatomic particles.

    It's not obvious that we can infer the non-spherical flux integral in this way. But we do know that to every closed surface in R^3 that does not go through the origin we can associate the flux integral "int E*dA" of the vector field E = x/Ixl^3 through that surface. E can be interpreted as the strength of the electric field arising from a point charge placed at the origin. In particular, div(E) = 0 for x ≠ 0, and by divergence theorem the flux integral does not change if the closed surface undergoes a continuous deformation, so long as it never crosses the origin. This is a topological property of the flux integral, just like the closed path Cauchy integral of 1/z has the same topological homotopy invariance property in complex analysis. Here the type of the vector field is of paramount importance.

    In college 36 years before I couldn't understand Gauss and Maxwell! Now I do! It was never explained well but still the flux lines flowing from the charge should remain the same whatever the radius of the sphere we keep drawing bigger and bigger around it, I reasoned! Hence the area of a sphere. And epsilon being the permeability to the flux. This could be applied to any type of flux like the radiation coming off the sun! To calculate how much the earth could capture that solar energy in a year! This could be used in all kinds of situations for all kinds of energies.

    Sir do you refer to any other resources other than Feynman sir's lectures ????? BTW love you so much , the way you explain the topics with such clarity that it seems that if we had sat with that particular thought in our mind and would had argued with prefect logic we could have discovered those theories by our selves.

    Very enjoyable and informative video!
    I would like to emphasize that only for spherically symmetric masses is F/m = GM/R^2 (and E = Q/(4piR^2). For example an ellipsoid or cube of mass will not obey the inverse square law.
    The TOTAL flux through any surface only depends on what's inside the surface, but if the ball of mass is not symmetric, then on a spherical surface enclosing the mass (or charge), there will be different contributions to F dot dA (E dot dA) at different places on the enclosing spherical surface. So you wouldn't be able to factor F (or E) out and solve for it.
    But if the ball of mass (charge) is spherically symmetric, every point of the enclosing spherical surface is like every other point, and the contributions to F dot dA (E dot dA) at different places on the enclosing spherical surface are identical, so F (E) can be factored out.

    Mahesh the more fundamental question here is why is Coulombs law the way it is? The process you outlined (and Feynman had been my personal hero since my childhood) is essentially mathematical jugglery - not something which reveals more than what Coulomb's law states. Why does Coulombs law resemble the law of gravitation so closely (the inverse square dependence and also the multiplication of charges or masses in the numerator)? What if there was a more obvious way of looking at Nature - that these laws would have just popped out from 'common-sense' logic? I have been exploring this field for the past 4 decades, and have some interesting and surprising results (yet to publish these as a book, have only given seminars at prominent universities around the globe).
    One could go even more basic. For example do you have a fundamental notion of what is "mass" or "momentum" or "energy", etc? Sure our school and university textbooks teach us some vague notions, but that is about it - vague notions. For example, ask anyone what is kinetic energy, and they are likely to chirp out "half m v square". But do you really have a feel when you write KE = 0.5*m*v^2, that it represents something called "energy"? Probably not ... for most (if not all) of us it is just a definition we mugged up in childhood and did not bother to question it again.
    Liked your presentation though. I did watch the whole video. Keep up the good work !

    Nice. Even more fun is to add in the 'units / dimensions' to the terms so as to get steradians (solid angle), and then later, to decide how to determine the "volumes" in 4d space time.
    A lot of optics and EM is greatly 'confused' by the omission of the solid angle units (which represent the cancellation of non coherent lengths in the equations)

    I have a question
    what If there are 2 point charges in the gaussian sphere one is R/2 to the up and R/2 the the down
    is then the electric flux is same every point ?
    Or this only holds when the point charges inside are equidistant from each other ?
    Thank you in advance

    Makes sense if you think about it like a surface tension with a fixed value, the field gets locally weaker or stronger depending on the distance, which depends on the shape and the location on the surface of that shape, but the surface area grows or shrinks with it, so it makes sense it would be a constant.
