Lecture 7:  iq05

 

1.  Conducting media:

o   Migration of electrons: Drude model, drift velocity

o   Einside=0 at equilibrium,surface charge only

2.  E in conducting media + external field (or external charges)

3.  Charging:  by contact and by induction (Read the text)

4.  Measurement of the electric field using finite size charge

5.  Estimate polarizability of an atom – “dimensional analysis”
