Hi, after watching kahn acadamy and lectures, mostly due to being busy, i would like if you could for someone to summarize electrostatics and magnetism topics as well as formulas used including values. I havr a test in two weeks. I have a general overall idea and would love to see it all in one place to better resolve the information taken in my notes. Additionally, due to missing a number of lectures due to illness. Thanks.

Would you like a very brief summary as in just in important bits? Or would you like me to talk about electrostatics and magnetism in general?

I think just the key stuff. I missed some lectures. I found the logic analysis of these questions difficult.

Two protons (p1 and p2) and an electron (e) lie on a straight line, as shown. The directions of the force of p1on e, the force of p2 on e, and the total force on e, respectively, are:

.
And also,

The diagram shows a pair of highly charged plastic cubes that attract each other. 

Cube 3 is a conductor and is uncharged. Which of the following illustrates the forces between cubes1 and 3 and between cubes 2 and 3?

.

They have been answered now but I guess with out calculating stuff (not that i'm sure I know where to begin) but would try. However, interpreting why they will move in such a way is what I'm not clear on. Just memorising it is not enough. Mostly I was after the key principles to help with my logic. Thanks. (btw I do get most of the basics but there's gaps.)

I got question 3 and 4 aha, only 12 more to go. Only 4 is below. 

Correct answer.Did you determine the final charge on each sphere in each case? How much charge must be transferred to achieve this final value?
  

(a) Rank the pairs according to the magnitude of the charge transferred during touching, greatest first.




Entry field with correct answer
 

3 > 1 > 2

 

1 = 2 = 3

 

2 > 1 > 3

(b) Rank the pairs according to the charge left on the positively charged sphere, greatest first.






Entry field with correct answer
 

3 > 1 > 2

 

2 > 1 > 3

 

1 = 2 = 3

I like this quetion which I answerd well.

What must be the distance in meters between point charge  q 1 = 38.1 µC and point charge  q 2 = -44.9 µC for the electrostatic force between them to have a magnitude of 7.21 N?
