Study Notes

Electrostatics

  • Studies stationary electric charges and their impact on surrounding space.
  • Point charges: charges with negligible dimensions.
  • Non-point charges: charges with noticeable dimensions.

Electric Field

  • The space around a charge where another charge would experience a force.
  • Every charge creates an electric field.

Electric Field Vector (E) Characteristics

  • Point of application: Located at a specific point (P) in space.
  • Direction: Along a line connecting the source charge (0) and the point (P).
  • Sense: From the source charge (0) towards the point (P).
  • Magnitude: Calculated using the formula: $E = \frac{kq}{r^2}$

Where:

  • $k$ is Coulomb's constant ($= 9 \times 10^9 , \text{Nm}^2/\text{C}^2$)
  • $q$ is the charge magnitude
  • $r$ is the distance from the charge to point P

Carbohydrate Classification

  • Diagram focuses on aldoses, a type of monosaccharide.
  • All sugars depicted are D-sugars, indicating the configuration of the chiral center in the structure.
  • The diagram's branching structure shows how sugars are derived from parent sugars.
  • Common functional groups like CHO, CH2OH, and OH are present in the formulas.
  • Specific sugars included: D-ribose, D-fructose, D-arabinose, D-xylose, D-threose, D-allose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-talose.
  • The diagram shows the structural relationships between different sugars (isomers).
