Comments: Yours and Ours 1. Please respect your fellow students – 2. Quite a bit of homework this week 3. Don’t panic!......Don’t be intimidated by integrals! Physics 212 Lecture 2, Slide 1 “I find the most difficult part to determine the direction of electric field. I need to calculate the magnitude as well as the angle for net magnitude and finally analysis and make the decision.” “i started to get confused at electric dipoles. give the positive and negative charges of same magnitude, how do you know what direction the field points in? also the infinite line stuff made 0 sense” “So what that point charge is 1/r^2 and infinite line is 1/r? Does that dimensional dependence matter?” “I am very confused on the dipole charges and the infinite lines of charge. Could you explain more about those?” I'd like to spend more time with setting up integrals for continuous distributions. “The integral of the continuous line charges is a bit abstract for me. I don't quite understand how to add up for the Y component.” “I didn't get the part in superposition of vectors, when he talks about dimensions and how its reflected in the formula.”
