Undergrad Question regarding Energy in Circuits with Capacitors
Hey everyone! I have a doubt that relates to energy stored in different capacitors (when they're in a circuit). I understand how in capacitors connected in parallel, the capacitor with the biggest capacitance stores the most energy because: E = 1/2 CV2 So naturally the bigger the capacitance...- Phy_TR

Help with Electric Forces Problem and Equilateral Triangles
Awesome, thanks! Ok, so this is what I did when I decomposed the vectors the first time: F12x= cos60F12 F12y= sin60F12 and F23x= F23 F23y= 0 giving me: FNetX = F23X-F12X (because they're going opposite I used the negative sign) FNetY = F12Y And then I did the pythagorean theorem for all...- Phy_TR

Help with Electric Forces Problem and Equilateral Triangles
Homework Statement The point charges in the figure have the following values: q1=+2.1μC, q2=+6.3μC, q3=−0.89μC. Suppose that the magnitude of the net electrostatic force exerted on the point charge q2 in the figure is 0.57 N . Find the distance d and the direction (angle) of the net force...- Phy_TR
