Introduction
Electrostatics is the study of the electric force.
Like charges repel and unlike charges attract.
Introduction
Neutral objects consist of an equal number of
positive and negative charges.

Introduction
Neutral objects and charged objects attract.
When a
charged object approaches a neutral object,
the
neutral object is polarized. The unlike charges
are
closer, so attraction is stronger than
+--repulsion.

Introduction
There are three methods of charging objects.
1) In the triboelectric effect, electrons are
transferred from one object to the other as
they come in contact often through
rubbing.

Introduction
So far we have studied electric force and
charge
qualitatively, without the use of the
numbers and
equations. In this lesson we analyze the
electric
force quantitatively.

Coulombs Law
F = kq1q2/d2
The unit for charge q is the coulomb. A coulomb
of charge is equal to 6.25 x 1018 elementary
charges. An elementary charge is the charge on
an electron or a proton. Conversely, one
elementary charge equals 1.6 x 10 -19 coulombs.

Coulombs Law
F = kq1q2/d2
A coulomb is a very large amount of charge, about
the amount of charge delivered in a small lightning
bolt. A typical lightning bolt delivers about
5 coulombs of charge.
A few coulombs
Coulombs Law
F = kq1q2/d2
A typical amount of charge that you might
experience from rubbing your feet on a carpet is
between 10-8 and 10-5 coulombs. A common unit
for measuring these charges is the microcoulomb
(C). One C equals 10-6 coulombs.

Coulombs Law

The constant k has a value of
9.0 x 109 newtonmeter2/coulomb2. This large
value is indicative of the strength of the electric
force.

Question 2:
An electron has a mass of 9.1 x 10-31 kg. A proton
has a mass of 1.7 x 10-27 kg. Both have a charge
of 1.6 x 10-19 coulombs. The separation distance
is 5.3 x 10-11 m. Determine the
sizes of the gravitational and
electric forces between the

Coulombs Law
F = kq1q2/d2
Coulombs Law applies only to spherical charges
or point charges. Point charges have sizes that
are much smaller than the separation distance.
Coulombs Law
F = kq1q2/d2
For instance, suppose the two rectangles shown
below are both charged. Coulombs law does not
apply to these charges. The sizes of the charged
bodies are comparable to the separation distance.
These bodies are not point charges.

F kq1q2/d2
Coulombs Law
F = kq1q2/d2
As the rectangles are moved further apart, they
approach becoming point charges. As the
separation distance increases, it becomes
substantially larger than the size of the charged
objects. Coulombs Law applies better as the
bodies move further apart.

Review
Coulombs Law describes the force between two
point charges and is given by the equation:
F = kq1q2/d2
in which q1 and q2 are the charges, d is the
separation distance between the charges, and k is
the proportionality constant equal to
9.0 x 109 nc2/m2.
Review
Electric Force is a vector. Forces in the same
direction add and forces in opposite directions
subtract. When using Coulombs Law, use the
absolute value of the charges in the equation and
then use reasoning regarding attractions and
repulsions to determine the directions of the
forces.

Review
When working with Coulombs Law in two
dimensions, we determine the x- and ycomponents of the net force separately. Again,
attractions and repulsions are used to determine
the direction of each force.

Review
Sometimes there is sufficient symmetry that one of
the force components cancels while the other
force component adds.
