Re: MIT's Walter Lewin's twice surprises the EE professors! (fun)






Is there is a fundamental problem in the way he has used Faraday's Law?
He traverses the circuit to calculate the total E_dot_dl, even though E
has been modified by the circuit rather than being simply E due just to
the changing B.

Jason Walters.

I don't think so. He is just using the usual idealized assumtion that
the wires themselves have zero resistence and that the resistance is
concentrated in the resistor.
