The Calculus Reveals Special Properties of Light
... and since we know from the Calculus that the derivative of any constant is zero, light does not accelerate in the propagation direction, while the field intensities accelerate and decelerate each other continuously. Think of a spring that stretches only until its maximum potential energy position is ...

Lecture 16
... Like the problem of sphere in an electric field, we will discuss how potential function for a uniform electric field is modified in the presence of a cylinder. Let us take the electric field directed along the x-axis and we further assume that the potential does not have any z dependence. As before, ...
