What is it about?

The present article puts forward a physical model which explains the features of the derived electrodynamic equations in the previous article [A. Rozov, Z. Naturforsch. 70, 1019 (2015)]. The offered model made it possible to suggest a new approach to the derivation of electrodynamic equations for slowly moving media. A variant of Galileo's relativity principle, in accordance with which the electrodynamic equations for slowly moving media should be considered as Galilei-invariant, is laid down.

Why is it important?

This article is a return to classical electrodynamics the development of which was interrupted with the creation of the theory of relativity by Minkowski who derived electrodynamic equations for moving media using the principle of relativity.

Perspectives

It offers a possibility to analyze principles of electrodynamics within both classical mechanics and theory of relativity.
