Article Review #2 on gravitational waves - Due Friday
Article Review #3 on a topics related to either particle physics or gravitational waves - Due Tuesday
- We finished our work with charging by induction.
- Afterwards, we started with Coulomb's Law - this is a way for us to calculate the amount of force of either attraction or repulsion between charged particles.
- We looked at example 4 to get a review with forces and then examples 5 and 6 to put forces together with our new law.

1st Period HOMEWORK: Article Review #2 and #3 - Focus on gravitational waves and one other article of your choosing
Review for quiz next class
- Today we finished up a little practice with Coulomb's Law. We did class example 7 and one more additional problem just to make sure we've got Coulomb's Law down.
- Afterwards, we had some time to play with the Van de Graaf generator before taking a look at lightning and how it works.

Extra Credit Problems
- Today, we started with our quiz on electrostatics.
- Afterwards, we started on our next unit. We spent some time discussing the idea of fields in general before talking about the electric field. More on this next time!
