I came upon a problem in my physics textbook and had a question as to why term was equal to zero.
The equation and its integration : \begin{align} B &= u(H+I) \\ dB&= u dH + udI \\ \int HdB &= u \int HdH + u \int HdI \end{align} Next, my textbook says that since $\int HdH = 0$, $$\int HdB = u \int HdI.$$
According to my rather basic understanding of Integration, since $\int xdx = x^2/2$, shouldn’t the integration of $HdH$ give $H^2/2$?
Edit: For context,
$B = $ Magnetic Induction
$H = $ Intensity of Magnetic Field
$I = $ Intensity of Magnetisation
$ u = $ Magnetic Permeability
Sorry if the answer is physics based instead of maths.
