Duality (electricity and magnetism)
ID: duality-electricity-and-magnetism
In the context of electricity and magnetism, duality refers to a conceptual symmetry between electric and magnetic fields and their respective sources. This duality is particularly significant in the framework of classical electromagnetism, as described by Maxwell's equations. Here’s a breakdown of the concept: ### Basic Concepts 1. **Electric Fields and Charges**: Electric fields (\(E\)) are produced by electric charges (static or moving).
