Statement of all four of Maxwell's Equations in completed form.

Statement of the second of Maxwell's Equations, that there is no net magnetic flux through a closed surface.

Definition, motivated by trying to find the magnetic field near a charging capacitor using Ampere's Law.

Finding the magnetic field around a charging capacitor using the modified form of Ampere's Law.

Using Maxwell-Ampere's Law to find the magnitude of the magnetic field anywhere between the plates of a charging capacitor.

Further discussion of Maxwell's discovery of displacement current, as well as his successful prediction of radio waves before their existence was proven by Hertz.

Inconsistency in Ampere's Law leads to new term; calculation of displacement current; application to RC circuit; complete Maxwell's Equations.

Solutions of E-field and B-field wave equations in vacuum.

Proof that light is an EM wave; connection with SI units; measuring c.

Statement that a changing magnetic flux induces an EMF. EMF is defined with diagrams. Examples of the ways to induce an EMF: Change B, change A enclosed by the loop, change angle between B and the loop. Link to visualization demonstrating these three cases.
