About Course
Course Overview:
This course introduces the fundamental properties of electrostatic fields. It defines the concepts of electric field, electric charge and the relationship between them. It also discusses forces between proximate charges, work done by electric fields, field energy storage and electric potential, or voltage. This course was developed by Kathryn Leigh Smith, Asst. Prof. in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of North Carolina-Charlotte in partnership with Ansys.
