Electromagnetics and Applications, Fall 2005. (Massachusetts Institute

This document summarizes Lecture 5 from the MIT OpenCourseWare course 6.013/ESD.013J Electromagnetics and Applications taught in Fall 2005 by Prof. Markus Zahn. The lecture covers the electric potential and the method of images. Key topics include the non-uniqueness of voltage in an MQS system, the potential and electric field of a point charge above a ground plane, a point charge and grounded conducting sphere, and the potential of an electric point dipole.
