Gauss

Carl Friedrich Gauss, 'Prince of Mathematics' as shown on the German 10 Mark note. You can see other pictures of Gauss, his students, and some family members.


This week (Jan 28-Feb 1):

We are in Chapter 2, studying electrostatics: using Gauss' law to relate Electric fields to the static charge distributions which produce them, and introducing the concept of Voltage.

Special notes:

There is an online participation survey - available here. Please take a few minutes to fill it in - this week! Thanks!


FYI: Teach for America is having an informational meeting Wed (Jan 30) , see here for more info
