Unit 1: Electrostatics
This website is currently a work in progress, more will be added in the future, contact me if you have any suggestions of useful content.
These are a few helpful links that I found over the summer and thought might supplement what we do together well. Sometimes I will link something, use it in an explanation or directly ask you to use a simulation for an assignment or lab. However there is a lot out there and I can't cover everything and something I don't use might just stick with you better. That's why this is here, if you find something in your intellectual travels you really like and helped you that is not here please send me the link so I can add to the resources.
What is charge? MITx (video 7min)
Gauss's law and the concept of electric flux (video 50min)
Just an unbelievably comprehensive set of simulations covering a huge variety of topics made by Boston University. These do not work well on phones or tablets. Link
Good visuals but limited topics, by eduMedia, the simulation will timeout but you just need to refresh the page. Link
3D Vector field, this is not user friendly but has a huge number of options to pick from. Use display settings: field vectors, field lines and equipotentials for best results.
