 | | Furthermore, Maxwell showed that the four equations, with his correction, predict waves of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that travel through empty space at a speed that could be predicted from simple electrical experiments—using the data available at the time, Maxwell obtained a velocity of 310,740,000 m/s. |
 | | where ρ is the free electric charge density (in units of C/m3), not including dipole charges bound in a material, and \mathbf{D} is the electric displacement field (in units of C/m2). |
 | | In some types of motors/generators, the field circuit is mounted on the rotor and the armature circuit is mounted on the stator, but other types of motors/generators employ the reverse configuration. |
