The video tutorial covers the Ampere-Maxwell equation, its historical context, and its integral and differential forms. It explains how the equation relates electric currents and changing electric flux to magnetic fields, comparing it with other Maxwell's equations like Gauss's and Faraday's laws. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of symmetry in solving problems and discusses the challenges in separating the effects of electric current and changing electric flux. The video concludes with a summary of Maxwell's equations and their application in classical physics.
