Electrocardiogram (E.C.G)
Electrocardiogram (E.C.G) The electrocardiogram (ECG) is the graphical representation of various changes of electrical potential in the heart (cardiac muscle fiber) during the cardiac cycle which can be recorded by placing suitable electrode over the…
Gauss’s Law to determine Electric Field due to two Charged Parallel Sheets
Electric field due to two charged parallel sheets: Consider a thin plane infinite sheet having positive charge density σ. In order to find the electric field intensity at a point p, which is at a…
Gauss’s Law to determine Electric Field near a Charged Plane Conductor
Electric field near a charged plane conductor: For an infinite sheet of charge, the electric field will be perpendicular to the surface. Therefore only the ends of a cylindrical Gaussian surface will contribute to the…
Limitation of Coulomb’s Law
Limitation of Coulomb’s Law Coulomb’s law is an extended method of the quantity 4π in MKS unit. This method is proposed by Oliver Heaviside and Lorentz in 1995. Apparently, it appears that inclusion of the…
