AP Physics 2: Static Electricity 26: Conductor in Static Situation
AP Physics 2: Static Electricity 27: Faraday’s Cage
28:00 to 31:26: Faraday’s ice pail experiment. 43:00 to 45:42: Metal box Faraday’s cage demo. 45:42 to end 49:58: Professor Lewin goes into a walk-in size Faraday’s cage. Lec 5 | MIT 8.02 Electricity and Magnetism, Spring 2002 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaZQzIXv2RQ (Update: MIT indefinitely removes online physics lectures and courses by Walter Lewin for good reasons. However, you can still watch this video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79xMsqRp6dE . I place this link here because I cannot find anything with equivalent or better quality (in terms of physics content). I do not condone Lewin's terrible behavior. For your safety, students should not contact Lewin in any way.)
AP Physics 2: Static Electricity 28: Plot E(r) and V(r) for a Conducting Sphere
AP Physics 2: Static Electricity 29: Capacitor, Capacitance, Energy in a Capacitor
In this video lesson, I derived UC = ½ qV. We can substitute the q in that equation with CV because q = CV. That gives us: UC = ½ qV = ½ (CV)V = ½ CV2. That is the equation Professor Lewin used in his lecture.
30:20 to 33:10 Charging the Monster Capacitor.
33:10 to 38:00 light bulb flash demo (like a photo flash).
(From 38:00 to 45:27 Professor Lewin talked about high speed photography and strobe light)
45:27 to end 49:27: Monster Capacitor makes a wire “explode”.
