Conservative Nature of the Electrostatic Field and Electrostatic Potential, Lecture – 4.
Today we will discuss the conservative nature of the static electric field — the time varying fields are not amenable to this conservative nature as we would learn in an advance discourse. This is intimately connected with the concept of the Helmholtz theorem which has been discussed on this website (linked below), in an advance…

Helmholtz theorem. Scalar and vector potentials
This lecture develops the formalism of electrodynamics in a very methodical way. It covers the following topics in detail. A. Formalism of electrodynamics — fundamental theorem B. Application of Helmholtz theorem — to electrostatics C. Application of Helmholtz theorem — to magnetostatics
