Tomorrow

Our Arduino boards for the project have arrived. We can start playing with them tomorrow. If you want to bring your laptop to make things easier, that might be good, otherwise, we'll use the PCs in the modern physics laboratory, which are not locked down by security software ...

Next week, we'll cover magnetic induction, which will explain the basics of how RFID works and allow you to get started more seriously on the project.

Tomorrow, we'll work on deriving magnetic fields from electrostatics + special relativity, and review the special relativity we covered on Monday. Friday, we'll finish of what we need of relativity by talking about relativistic energy, momentum, and force.
