Your Comments Electricity & Magnetism Lecture 19, Slide 1 I am not feeling great about this midterm...some of this stuff is really confusing still and I don't know if I can shove everything into my brain in time, especially after spring break. Can you go over which topics will be on the exam Wednesday? This was a very confusing prelecture. Do you think you could go over thoroughly how the LC circuits work qualitatively? I may have missed something simple, but in question 1 during the prelecture why does the charge on the capacitor have to be 0 at t=0? I feel like that bit of knowledge will help me with the test wednesday I remember you mentioning several weeks ago that there was one equation you were going to add to the 2013 equation sheet... which formula was that? Thanks! Some Exam Stuff Exam Wed. night (March 27th) at 7:00  Covers material in Lectures 9 – 18  Bring your ID: Rooms determined by discussion section (see link)  Conflict exam at 5:15 Don’t forget: • Worked examples in homeworks (the optional questions) • Other old exams For most people, taking old exams is most beneficial Final Exam dates are now posted C I L Q LC Circuit Electricity & Magnetism Lecture 19, Slide 5   dt dI LVL    C Q VC  Circuit Equation: 0 dt dI L C Q dt dQ I  LC Q dt Qd  2 2 where Q dt Qd 2 2 2  LC 1  What is the potential difference across the inductor at t = 0? A) VL = 0 B) VL = Qmax/C C) VL = Qmax/2C Pendulum. At time t = 0 the capacitor is fully charged with Qmax and the current through the circuit is 0.
