Sections
- Title
- Fields around point charges
- Synopsis
- The programme develops the concept of field and field strength around point charges from the parallel ideas in gravitation. Explains how to investigate the shape of electric fields around point charges and quantify field strengths and forces. Demonstrates the application of electric fields in industry.
- Duration
- 28 mins
- Title
- Electrical potential
- Synopsis
- Compares electric and gravitational effects; defines electric potential and electric potential difference; demonstrates the effects of potential difference on charged particles and explains lightning and particle acceleration using the concept of electrical potential; investigates the effects of a potential difference on body tissues and discusses safety issues.
- Duration
- 28 mins
- Title
- Electric fields between plates
- Synopsis
- This programme investigates the shape of electric fields between and around plates and demonstrates the uniformity of such fields. It analyses the behaviour of moving electrtic charges in uniform fields quantitatively, using vector sum calculations. Uses lightning and particle accelerators for reviewing the effects of electric fields.
