Phenomenographic analysis and comparison of students’ conceptual understanding of electric and magnetic fields and the principle of superposition

Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
There are studies of students’ understanding of the concept of the electric field, the magnetic field, and the use of the superposition principle that have contributed to the creation of both educational strategies and assessment tools.

“The Principles of Magnetism and Electricity” [PDF]

Nature, 1901
THERE are two points occurring in the review (p. 434) of “The Principles of Magnetism and Electricity” in which the author appears to me to be correct, though the examples are given as instancing errors into which he has fallen. The reviewer states, “The author measures magnetic force in dynes and difference of potential in ergs,” thereby apparently ...
