Physics: Basics of Electrostatics

Physics: Basics of Electrostatics

This course will help you to develop an in-depth understanding of electrostatics. Electrostatics is the foundation on which other advanced topics such as Magnetism and Electromagnetic spectrum etc are based. There are many materials available on electrostatics; however they do not focus on explaining the nuanced concepts. This course does not merely explain the facts, but goes deep and explains why those facts exist in the first place.

Secondly, in this course, you will find a dedicated section on various mathematical tools, which will be used throughout the course. I believe that your understanding of the concepts becomes very easy if you are able to express them mathematically. The mathematical tools, which you will learn in this course will be beneficial not only for electrostatics, but for any discipline of Physics.

The course is divided into three sections:

1. Mathematical tools needed to apply Electrostatics

2. Electrostatics concepts

3. Gauss's Law

4. Application of electrostatics concepts in Battery and capacitors

This course covers a methodical approach to solving numerical problems. Whether you are in high school preparing for an engineering entrance examination or you are looking to hone your skills or you are just curious to learn about Physics, you will find this course very useful.
