Hello all
I need help, please recommend a good source for electromagnetism for a high school student, but it should be a bit brief and gives a good understanding of the topic. I am supposed to go over merely those concepts in a matter of hours.

- Inductor

- Lenz's Law

- Back emf

- Inductor charging and discharging

- Energy storage

- RL circuit

- time constant

- Exponential charge/discharge

Have you tried reading about those topics at wikipedia? That should give you pretty good introductions to the concepts. :smile:
