Electric Charge and Force

The class revolved around electricity with special regards to electric fields. 

The picture above shows a basic set up of Coulumb's Law but with respect to an electric field. We solved the equation for the electric field and got E = kq/r^2. It also has similar properties to work.

We then moved on to a programming activity that dealt with making a 3D model of an electric field. We were supposed to predict what it would look like. The picture above shows our prediction.

We then used python in order to graph the electric filed. The picture above shows how it looked like.

We then moved on to more properties of electric fields but this time with multiple point particles. We calculated the different electric fields surrounding the particles in graph and our calculations are shown below that graph.

We then did another problem which involved a lot of calculations so we decided to do it in Excel. It involved an integral and having to sum up all of the values.

Lastly, we did an integration that involved centers of mass within a thin rod but this time it was regarding a charge. The calculations are shown above.
