Electrostatics is a branch of physics that studies electric charges at rest. Since classical physics, it has been known that some materials, such as amber, attract lightweight particles after rubbing. The Greek word for amber, or electron, was the source of the word 'electricity'. Electrostatic phenomena arise from the forces that electric charges exert on each other. Such forces are described by Coulomb's law. Electromagnetism is a branch of physics involving the study of the electromagnetic force, a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles. The electromagnetic force is carried by electromagnetic fields composed of electric fields and magnetic fields, and it is responsible for electromagnetic radiation such as light. The fundamental concepts and principles behind Physics are explained in a simple, easy- to- understand manner. Each chapter contains a large number of solved example or problem which will help the students in problem solving. This text book "Electrostatics & Electromagnetism" is organized into Five Chapters. Chapter-1: ElectrostaticsChapter-2: Current ElectricityChapter-3: MagnetismChapter-4: Electromagnetic InductionChapter-5: Electromagnetic WavesSalient Features-Comprehensive Coverage of Electrostatics, Current Electricity, Magnetism, Electromagnetic Induction and Electromagnetic Waves-Each chapter contains a large number of solved example or objective type's problem which will help the students in problem solving of Physics.-Clear perception of the various problems with a large number of neat, well drawn and illustrative diagrams. -Simple Language, easy- to- understand manner.Our sincere thanks are due to all Scientists, Engineers, Authors and Publishers, whose works and text have been the source of enlightenment, inspiration and guidance to us in presenting this small book. I will appreciate any suggestions from students and faculty members alike so that we can strive to make the text book more useful in the edition to come.
