This is why sometimes the electric potential is called the scalar potential and the magnetic potential is called the vector potential.
14.
The magnetic scalar potential " ? " is sometimes used to specify the magnetic permanent magnets when their magnetization is known.
15.
This is analogous to a " scalar potential ", which is a scalar field whose gradient is a given vector field.
16.
The gradient at node i is a directed edge pointing towards the largest increase of the scalar potential in the node's neighborhood.
17.
For a charged particle in an electromagnetic field, described by the scalar potential and vector potential, the momentum operator must be replaced by:
18.
A generalized electric scalar potential is also used in electrodynamics when time-varying electromagnetic fields are present, but this can not be so simply calculated.
19.
Scalar potential is not determined by the vector field alone : indeed, the gradient of a function is unaffected if a constant is added to it.
20.
From Maxwell's equations, it is clear that is not always zero, and hence the scalar potential alone is insufficient to define the electric field exactly.
