What you’ll learn
- Field language beats mythReplace lodestone myth with field language.B is mapped and sourced by currents.
- Laws that build BUse Biot–Savart and Ampère appropriately.Symmetry shortcuts when earned.
- Force and devicesConnect Lorentz force to devices.Motors redirect charges; vectors matter.
