Charge, Field, and Potential Coulomb's Law and Field and Potential of Point Charges Fields and Potentials of Other Charge Distributions Gauss's Law and Electrostatics with Conductors Capacitors Dielectrics Current, Resistance, Power Steady-State Direct Current Circuits Capacitors in Circuits Forces on Current-Carrying Wires in Magnetic Fields Wire Fields; Biot-Savart and Ampere's Law Electromagnetic Induction Inductance and Maxwell's Equations Lecture Notes and Tutorials Magnetism These notes from PhysicsLAB by Catherine H. Colwell contain detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples.   Magnetism The Magnetic Force These notes from Frank Wolfs at the University of Rochester contain calculus-level, detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples.   The Magnetic Force Simulations Physics Simulation Library Each simulation includes an audio introduction and general directions. These simulations are very well designed, and each experiment gives the opportunity to change the parameters, collect data, and interpret various graphs. A simulation called Motion of a Charge in Electric and Magnetic Fields is included:   Physics Simulation Library Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field This applet shows a charged particle moving in a magnetic field.   Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field Charged Particle in Electric and Magnetic Fields This applet shows a charged particle moving in a magnetic field and an electric field.   Charged Particle in Electric and Magnetic Fields Exploration Attraction and Repulsion by Magnet Poles This site from Florida State University offers a short explanation of magnetism with excellent interactive simulations.   Attraction and Repulsion By Magnet Poles See also...
