The plan for Tues, roughly

Basically, we'll finish up electrical energy & capacitance.

  • More details about the exam ...
  • Review HW2 problems
  • Review of electric potential - relation to PE and work; point charges
  • Systems of charges - potential energy and stability of crystals
  • Isolated conductors and equipotential surfaces
  • Review of capacitor basics - adding in series & parallel; parallel plate capacitors
  • Complex capacitor combinations - how to analyze
  • Capacitors with stuff inside - dielectrics & dipoles in electric fields
