Abstract:Abstract-The competence of the basically electrostatic Coulomb's Law has historically been assumed to be restricted to pure electrostatics. As soon as electric charges were studied in motion, new sets of laws were introduced to explain the electromagnetic forces that are impelled by the motion. Among these new laws are Neumann's law of induction, Grassmann's force law, Lorentz' force law, and Ampère's force law. Furthermore, the difficulties in explaining the nature of light have given rise to the so-called wa… Show more
