    Notation of permittivity in farads per meter question

    I am using an old textbook as a reference, and the equation given for the electrical permittivity of free space ε0 is given in terms of: (Fm-1) where this measurement notation represents farads per meter. Why the superscript of -1 in the notation?

    Mastering Student Life: Overcoming Procrastination and Improving Focus on Exams

    I have often been distracted easily, and I have also been a bad procrastinator in the past. In fact, depending upon what you are using as a reference of measure when you say you are not like "normal students," daydreaming and procrastinating might well be the "norm"--at least for mandatory...

    Philosophy, Electrical Engineering, Jobs and Loans

    Yeah, that's why I am concerned about loans. In my case, I will need to take several undergrad courses before being elligible for admission to a grad program, but from what I've read elsewhere, it seems like a better idea to go after the MS rather than a second BS, for example. And I'm...

    Philosophy, Electrical Engineering, Jobs and Loans

    I currently have a BA in Philosophy from 2008 and am interested in getting an MS in Electrical Engineering. Are the loans worth it? Does the salary typically outweigh the cons of the loans? How is the employment out there for electrical engineers? Does anyone have any idea as to how my BA...
