Electromagnetics | Electric Field From Charge Distributions | Purdue University

In this educational video, Professor Michael Melloch from Purdue University's School of Electrical and Computer Engineering throws light on the concept of electric field intensity due to a volume charge density. By utilizing Coulomb's law, Professor Melloch demonstrates how to calculate this electric field intensity by considering each differential volume as a discrete point charge. The video also covers how an infinite line of charge on the z axis affects electric field intensity.
Listen in as he dives into the details of these complex electromagnetics concepts and compares the conclusions to the phenomenon of a point charge at the origin.
