Accidentally tarpitted prof's office hours by asking a question about one of the assignment problems. Turns out the obvious approach gives a non-physical result and he can't figure out why.
This sort of thing just follows me around, I'm not trying to cause trouble, I swear.

@dj3vande I am curious what a non-physical even means in this context?

@silverwizard Does not follow the laws of physics. In this case, the electric field has a nonzero curl even though there are no changing magnetic fields, which violates Maxwell's Equations.
(If any physics nerds want details, I can give a description of the problem and why the result is non-physical, but I'll hold off on that until somebody asks.)

@dj3vande Bah - that guy's work is full of daemons anyway

@silverwizard Different body of work. The daemons prefer the habitat on the thermodynamics side, this is E&M.
