Lesson 4.1 - Read Serway Physics

Read Chapter 25.1-5 of Serway Physics textbook (EStIMATED 70 mins)

"Physics for Scientists and Engineers with Modern Physics (2018) 10th Edition" by Serway and Jewett

  • Chapter 25 - Capacitance and Dielectrics

    • 25.1 - Definition of Capacitance

    • 25.2 - Calculating Capacitance

    • 25.3 - Combinations of Capacitors

    • 25.4 - Energy Stored in a Charged Capacitor

    • 25.5 - Capacitors with Dielectrics

    • (SKIP) 25.6 - Electric Dipole in an Electric Dipole

    • (OPTIONAL) 25.7 - An Atomic Description of Dielectrics

  • 14 pages (+3 optional pages)

  • 25.7 is optional because it describes the problem-solving techniques used for some multiple choice questions involving capacitors with dielectrics, but these techniques are easy to come to without reading the section, which goes quantitatively more in-depth than necessary.
