1 You Comments Do we still get the 8% back on homewok? It doesn't seem to be showing that. Also, this is eally stating to make sense to me! I am a little confused about the diffeences in solid conductos, solid insulatos, and instances whee thee is a combination of both and we need to find the electic field. I had some difficulty undestanding the mateial, especially the significance of chage density and the induced chages on a conducting sphee. Thee wee a few times duing the pe lectue whee they said "The electic field hee MUST be " and I didn't undestand why How do you know what Gaussian suface to use to calculate the electic field poduced by a paticula object? Like if you'e calculating the electic field poduced a distance fom solid spheical conducto you would use a concentic sphee as the Gaussian suface. Then fo instance fo a cube, would you use a concentic cube? Sometimes I get confused as to what adius to plug in fo volumes and aeas. Could we go ove when to use the adius of the chage and when to use the adius of the Gaussian suface? lecticity & Magnetism Lectue 4, Slide 1

Claim: xcess chage on conducto only on suface at equilibium Why? Apply Gauss Law Take Gaussian suface to be just inside conducto suface eveywhee inside conducto da Gauss Law: suface da Q enc o Q enc suface SIMULATION 9 lecticity & Magnetism Lectue 4, Slide 4

This is always tue fo a solid conducto (within the mateial of the conducto) Hee we have a chage inside The field points fom the positive chage to the negative chage. It must point inwad to cancel out the field outwad due to the chage inside the shell to completely cancel out the e-field inside the shell The fields cancel out. 5 lecticity & Magnetism Lectue 4, Slide 11

The fist positive and negatively chaged planes in case B both have fields pointing to the ight. These ae the stongest fields because they'e closest to the point P. The ightmost positive field will point to the left, but this will be weake than eithe of the two fields pointing to the ight, giving an oveall geate field magnitude in case B. If you supeposition the electic fields, they cancel out in case B so the electic field is the same in both cases. 3 lecticity & Magnetism Lectue 4, Slide 14
