Why is charge $q$ chosen as the variable of integration when converting from summation to integral form in electric field calculations?
If we have several point charges $q_1, q_2, q_3, \cdots$, and their distances from a test charge $Q$ are respectively ${\imath}_1, {\imath}_2, {\imath}_3$, $\cdots$, then the electric field intensity ...

How to derive $\partial^{\nu}F^{\mu\alpha} + \partial^{\alpha}F^{\nu\mu} + \partial^{\mu}F^{\alpha\nu}=0$ for the Electromagnetic field tensor? [closed]
The problem says to show that
$$\partial_{[\mu}F_{\alpha\nu]}=F^{\mu\alpha, \nu} + F^{\nu\mu,\alpha} + F^{\alpha\nu,\mu}=0$$ stems from Maxwell equations.
I haven't been able to find this anywhere on ...
