Sign convention for EMF
When we define the field generate by EMF, why there is not negative sign in $\mathcal{E} = \oint \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{l}$?
Usually we talk about potential, there should be a negative sign, right?

Electric field generated by a point charge moving at the speed of light
As you see, this is the electric field generated by a point charge moving at constant speed v. I know that when $v$ -> 0, $E$ is just the Coloumb Law. But how do you interpret $E$ when $v$ -> $c$ ? …
