This course will give a basic understanding of Electromagnetism and its applications. It will cover the following topics

1. Oersted's Experiment
2. Strength and Direction of the magnetic field around a current carrying conductor, loop and solenoid
3. Maxwell's Right hand thumb rule for direction of magnetic field around a current carrying conductor
4. Right hand rule for force exerted on a positive charge in a magnetic field
5. Left hand rule for force exerted on a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field
6. Right hand rule for direction of current induced in a conductor due to change in linked magnetic flux
7. Motor effect
8. Electromagnetic induction and Faraday's laws
9. Lenz's law and Law of conservation of energy
10. Principle, construction and working of an Electric motor
11. Principle, construction and working of an AC Generator
12. AC wave as a sinusoidal wave
