In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.
Continuous charge distribution. The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal nĚ‚, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.
If the energy–momentum tensor T μν is that of an electromagnetic field in free space, i.e. if the electromagnetic stress–energy tensor = (+) is used, then the Einstein field equations are called the Einstein–Maxwell equations (with cosmological constant Λ, taken to be zero in conventional relativity theory): + = (+).
The multipole expansion circumvents this difficulty by expanding not E or B, but r ⋅ E or r ⋅ B into spherical harmonics. These expansions still solve the original Helmholtz equations for E and B because for a divergence-free field F, ∇ 2 (r ⋅ F) = r ⋅ (∇ 2 F). The resulting expressions for a generic electromagnetic field are:

By the Kelvin–Stokes theorem we can rewrite the line integrals of the fields around the closed boundary curve ∂Σ to an integral of the "circulation of the fields" (i.e. their curls) over a surface it bounds, i.e. = (), Hence the Ampère–Maxwell law, the modified version of Ampère's circuital law, in integral form can be rewritten as ((+)) =
The Planck relation [1] [2] [3] (referred to as Planck's energy–frequency relation, [4] the Planck–Einstein relation, [5] Planck equation, [6] and Planck formula, [7] though the latter might also refer to Planck's law [8] [9]) is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics which states that the energy E of a photon, known as photon energy, is proportional to its frequency ν: =.
The electric field is perpendicular, locally, to the equipotential surface of the conductor, and zero inside; its flux πa 2 ·E, by Gauss's law equals πa 2 ·σ/ε 0. Thus, σ = ε 0 E. In problems involving conductors set at known potentials, the potential away from them is obtained by solving Laplace's equation, either analytically or ...
