-Would you have a multimeter that measures capacitance directly? It's always hard to go over the combination rules before we formally introduce Kirchhoff's laws so a capacitance-meter instead of a voltmeter would be great.2025-03-12
-Would you have a demo or app showing the oscillation of an electric dipole in an external electric field?2025-02-19
-Would there be any kind of home-made capacitor where we can insert/remove a dielectric slab and measure the change in capacitance with the type of meter used today for the combination rules? Alternatively, a voltmeter would be interesting to measure the voltage change when the slab is introduced/removed as the capacitor is disconnected from the battery.2025-03-14
-For the same reason as with capacitors previously, I think it would be better to use an ohmmeter instead of a voltmeter.2025-03-19
-Could you also please look for an app that shows electric field vectors or lines as well equipotential lines?2025-03-07
-Can I get the home-made kit with cardboard tube and needles?2025-02-21
