1
Fields and Conductors Actually make sense
2
Electrostatic Equilibrium
Requires no field inside a conductor. Unbalanced charges at conductor’s surface. External field perpendicular to conductor surface
3
Internal charge +q
4
Internal charge +q
5
Hollow conductor +q
6
Hollow conductor Inside: field from point charge +q +q –q
Between: zero field Outside: field from point charge +q
7
Electric Flux FE Conceptually, the number of electric field lines passing through a surface E FE = EA A = area of the surface
8
Electric Flux FE Previous formula only works when field is normal to the surface E FE = 0
9
Electric Flux FE E q Area in profile is A cos q
q = angle of E field from surface normal FE = EA cos q
