Description: The discussion of plasma as a highly conducting fluid is described in this lecture. Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is a low-frequency, long-wavelength approximation that is very useful in understanding the instabilities in the plasma. Some conditions for the validity of the MHD approximation have also been discussed in this lecture.
