- Immediate Connections:
- The work done on a dipole can be expressed as an integral.
(pg. 692 - University Physics)
- the surface integral;
Gauss's Law (pg. 709 -
University Physics)
- Potential can be expressed as an integral. (pg. 731 -
University Physics)
- integration by tables (pg. 746 - University Physics)
- The components of an electric field are related to the
corresponding derivatives of the potential differences.
- Note: The integrals in the definitions in the Physics
book are first simplified symbolically for the students
