Review Blast: 2nd Law Problems (Levels: Intro, APB, APC)

This podcast is a very quick review of how to use 2nd Law and Equilibrium ideas, along with force-component and friction ideas, when solving force problems.

Review Blast: Parallel-Plate Capacitors (Levels: APB, APC)

The podcast is a very quick review of the meaning of capacitance, the factors that affect the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, and rules for capacitors in series and parallel.

Review Blast: Curved Mirrors (Levels: Intro, APB)

This podcast is a very quick review of curved mirrors, including how to draw ray diagrams, what types of images are formed by different curved mirror situations, and how to perform calculations related to curved mirror image formation.

Review Blast: Electric Potential (Levels: APB, APC)

This podcast is a quick review of what electric potential means, and also how potential is related to electric field strength. A very brief discussion is also included that reviews how to calculate potential due to a collection of point charges.

Review Blast: Induced emf (Levels: Intro, APB, APC)

This podcast is a very quick review of Faraday's law of induction, discussing the meaning and calculation of magnetic flux, and the various ways in which a change in flux can happen to lead to induced emf. An added 2 minutes at the end of this podcast reviews how calculations are different in a calculus-based application of Faraday's law.

Review Blast: Magnetic Field & Forces (Levels: Intro, APB, APC)

This podcast is a very quick review of how to perform several different calculations related to magnetic field. (It does NOT review directional aspects of magnetic forces, such as the right-hand rule.) Long straight current-carrying wires are discussed, from the perspective of B-fields they create and how they are affected by external B-fields. The effects of a B-field on a moving charge's motion are also reviewed.

Review Blast: Series & Parallel Circuits (Levels: Intro, APB, APC)

This podcast is a very quick review of the differences between series and parallel circuits in terms of the way current flows, and in terms of the equivalent resistance of the circuit.
