The Electric Field Outside And Inside A Resistive Spherical Shell Carrying A Steady Azimuthal Current
The potential, electric field and surface charges outside and inside a resistive spherical shell carrying a steady azimuthal current were calculated. The medium inside and outside the spherical shell was supposed to be air or vacuum. A time-independent electric field different from zero in both regions was obtained. The surface charge density was obtained by the standard procedure of taking the radial components of the external and internal electric fields.722-3212217Sommerfeld, A., (1964) Electrodynamics, , Academic Press.

Circuit Theory In Weber Electrodynamics
We present a derivation of the equation describing the current flow in a circuit with self-inductance based on Newton's second law plus the Weber force or, alternatively, plus the Lorentz or Liénard-Schwarzschild force. In Weber's approach the self-inductance can be treated as a measure of the effective average inertial mass of the conduction electrons.183241246Assis, A.K.T., (1994) Weber's Electrodynamics, , Dordrecht: KluwerHeald, M.A., Marion, J.B., (1995) Classical Electromagnetic Radiation 3rd Edn, 41, pp. 1-34. , Fort Worth: Saunders problemReitz, J.R., Milford, F.J., Christy, R.W., (1980) Foundations of Electromagnetic Theory 3rd Edn, , (Reading, MA: Addison-Wesley) section 7.7Grover, F.W., (1946) Inductance Calculations - Working Formulas and Tables, 35. , New York: Van NostrandBueno, M.A., Assis, A.K.T., A new method for inductance calculations (1995) J.

Deriving Force From Inductance
The correctness of calculating the force on current carrying circuits by taking the derivative of the inductance coefficient of the circuits is shown even in the case of a single closed circuit, contrary to the opinion of some authors. This demonstration is illustrated with the force exerted by a cylinder with poloidal current on an infinitesimal strip belonging to the same cylinder. The force is calculated directly from the force expressions and also by differentiating the self-inductance of the cylinder. This result is another proof of the equivalence between Ampère and Grassmann's forces. © 1998 IEEE.341 PART 2317319Assis, A.K.T., Bueno, M., Equivalence between Ampère and Grassmann's forces (1996) IEEE Trans.

On Absolute And Relative Motions In Physics
The authors present the Newtonian definitions of absolute and relative motion. The idea is defended that only relative motions of matter relative to matter can be detected and lead to measurable effects. Phenomena is analyzed depending on velocity and acceleration in electromagnetism and mechanics.64812Assis, A.K.T., (1994) Weber's Electrodynamics, , Kluwer, Dordrecht, ISBN: 0-7923-3137-0Assis, A.K.T., (1999) Relational Mechanics, , Apeiron, Montreal, ISBN: 0-9683689-2-1Assis, A.K.T., Thober, D.S., Unipolar induction and Weber's electrodynamics (1994) Frontiers of Fundamental Physics, pp. 409-414. , M.

Ampère's Motor: Its History And The Controversies Surrounding Its Working Mechanism
In 1822 Ampère created a new kind of motor when he succeeded in spinning a cylindrical magnet around its axis by connecting it to a battery generating a steady current. Nowadays, it is easy to present such a motor in the classroom utilizing a neodymium magnet, a D battery, a steel nail, and a short piece of copper wire. Although it is very simple to observe the rotation, the explanation of this effect is still under dispute. This work presents the history of this motor including the controversy between Ampère and Faraday, as well as the modern explanation based on the field concept. We emphasize the positive outcomes to be gained in the classroom by presenting this device to students. © 2012 American Association of Physics Teachers.8011990995Matthews, M., (1994) Science Teaching: The Role of History and Philosophy of Science, , (Routledge, New York)Chiaverina, C., The simplest motor?

On The Unification Of Forces Of Nature
Different aspects of physical interaction are considered: inertia, gravitation, electrostatics, magnetostatics and galvanism. It is discussed the experimental and theoretical reasons leading to the unification of some of them. It is then explored by analogies what might lead to the unification of gravitation with electromagnetism.27214916
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
