Review: HW 11:2 #1-10 Discrete Electrostatic Potential

Introduce: Calculating electrostatic potential via integration - Continuous charge distributions -  Emphasize connection to being able to calculate the electric field!

Assign: Oral Presentations [x2] Plasma Globe for Monday

Assign: HW 143-144 #1-5 Potential via Integration 
 

Project Supervision & Evaluation:

• Periodic discussions with individual groups

• Daily debriefing with individual groups

• Emphasize safety in all aspects of project work

The overall goals for this week will be to:

Develop the relationship between electrostatic potential and the electric field. E=-DV/Dr  or DV=-∫E· dl
