Electromagnetism I
The gradient is a vector that represents the rate and direction of change of a scalar field. It provides crucial information about how quantities such as electric potential or temperature vary in space, pointing in the direction of the steepest increase and having a magnitude that indicates how steep that increase is. In the context of electromagnetic fields, gradients help describe how field strengths change and are vital for understanding Maxwell's equations.
congrats on reading the definition of Gradient. now let's actually learn it.
