PHYS 4421: Electricity and Magnetism I

Explore the fascinating comparison between the acceleration of a motorcycle going from 80 km/h to 90 km/h and a bicycle accelerating from rest to 10 km/h in the same time frame.

Delve into Newton's third law of motion and explore how the choice of the 'system of interest' influences whether force pairs cancel each other out.

Explore the intricate dynamics of an L-C circuit as we analyze voltage current and energy transitions between a 60.0 millihenry inductor and a 250 microfarad capacitor. Understand the principles of energy transfer and storage in this system. Uncover key insights from calculations on capacitor charges and inductor energies at specific circuit conditions.

Discover the significance of models in the fascinating realms of relativity and quantum mechanics, where conditions defy our everyday experience. Explore the concept of a model and its role in understanding these complex theories.

Discover how energy conservation principles determine the velocity of a bouncing ball. Relate the ball's height and its potential and kinetic energies. Understand the velocity change upon impact and rebound.
