    Studying EE textbooks....to keep or not to keep?

    So I am junior EE student and was wondering whether i should keep my upper level courses' textbooks or not. I have my lower level courses' textbooks simply because my brother will be coming into TAMU in the future, but I'm confused as to what to do with my upper level books (rent or buy). Here...

    Understanding the Hall Effect: True Statements and Experimental Tips

    In this experiment you will use the Hall Effect to measure the strength of magnetic fields. Which of the following are true statements about the Hall Effect? (Select all that apply.) The Hall probe that we will use in this lab is made of a semiconductor. (check- i know this is one) The value...

    Determining Horizontal Sweep for RC Circuit Time Constant - Physics Lab

    Consider a series RC circuit with an R = 3.0 Ω and a capacitance of 12 µF being charged to a voltage of 5.0 V. (Note, you will not include units in your answers.) If you wished the charging of this capacitor to have a vertical displacement of 4.0 DIV from 0 charge to fully charged, what value...

    Electromotive Force: E=Vab=IR Explained

    The potential difference between the ends of a wire is given by Vab = IR. Combing that with E = Vab we have E = Vab = IR (ideal source of emf). " That is, when a positive charge flows around the circuit, the potential rise as it passes through the ideal source is numerically equal to the...

    Deriving Units for Current Density - J=I/A Length

    Just trying to derive the units for current density but i keep getting A*m rather than A/m^2. J = I/A A length derivation would help.

    Calculate Energy Density of Spherical Capacitor

    A capacitor is formed from two concentric spherical conducting shells separated by vacuum. The inner sphere has radius 10.5cm , and the outer sphere has radius 15.5cm . A potential difference of 110V is applied to the capacitor. What is the energy density at r= 10.6cm , just outside the inner...
