What next?

Hello!

First of all, I wanted to remind you that tomorrow we will discuss continuous charge distributions and we will introduce the electric FIELD.

The plan for next week is:


MONDAY: energy of a system of charges, flux, Gauss’s law (proof+pset)
you’ll need to review cylindrical and spherical coordinates!

WEDNESDAY: energy in the electric field

FRIDAY: electric potential

As you start reading a new topic, be sure to keep up with the problems (listed in our calendar)!

See you tomorrow,

Paola
