    B What is the difference between B and H?

    A week ago, I started studying electromagnetism. I was introduced to a few new concepts and one of them was H. Now, in my book, they defined H as just magnetic field strength and B as magnetic induction. The thing is, I don't understand what those terms really are (in a physical way), let alone...
