Calculating Potentials

In-class Content

Reading: GVC § Potentials from Continuous Charge Distributions–Potential Due to an Infinite Line of Charge
Electrostatic potential due to a ring of charge (SGA)
Series expansion of potential due to a ring of charge (Extension of previous SGA)
Potential due to a finite line (lecture)
Potential due to infinite line (lecture) (This is a longish lecture and a bit more sophisticated than much of the other material. It is an excellent opportunity to do lots of series expansions and review logarithm rules. Alternatively, it can be left out to save time.)
