In electrostatics, you will learn about charges, electric filed lines and drift velocity of electrons, Gauss&#39; law of electrostatic field, voltage difference and microscopic Ohm&#39;s law connecting voltage and current through the conductors. You will learn how some materials are conductors, some are semi-conductors and some are insulators of electrical charge.

Dr. Sonwalkar is regarded as a leading expert in the application of computers in education. He has extensive research and development experience in hypermedia authoring, mobile learning, adaptive learning, and brain-based synaptic learning, advanced scientific visualization, database management systems, and computer simulation.

After receiving doctoral degree from MIT in the area of Molecular Dynamics of Nano-interfaces, he joined MIT as faculty in Mechanical Engineering, but his passion for technology enabled education led him become the founding director of Hypermedia Teaching Facility (Hypermedia Lab) at MIT and later he was appointed as the Principal Educational Architect of MIT.

The motion of electrical charge in an electrical filed gives rise to electrical potential which popularly measured in Volts. You will learn all about creation of potential difference in an electric field. And,how you can store electrical energy between two charged plates which is termed as capacitor. You will also learn charging and discharging of capacitors and how to connect capacitors in series and parallel to achieve necessary capacitance.
