INTRODUCTION
Charles-Augustin de Coulomb (born June 14, 1736, Angoulême, France—died
August 23, 1806, Paris) was a French physicist best known for the formulation
of Coulomb’s law, which states that the force between two electrical charges is
proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square
of the distance between them. The Coulomb force is one of the principal forces
involved in atomic reactions.

Electric Charges and Forces Coulomb's inverse-square law, or simply Coulomb's


law, is an experimental law of physics that calculates the amount of force between
two electrically Charged particles at rest. This electric force is conventionally
called the electrostatic force or Coulomb force. Although the law was known
earlier, it was first published in 1785 by French physicist Charles-Augustin de
Coulomb. Coulomb's law was essential to the development of the theory of
electromagnetism and maybe even its starting point, as it allowed meaningful
discussions of the amount of electric charge in a particle.

Coulomb's Law is a fundamental principle in physics that describes the


electrostatic force between two charged particles. It was formulated by French
physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb in 1785. The charges law states that:

 The electrostatic force between two point charges is directly proportional to


the product of the magnitudes of the charges.
 The force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the.
PRINCIPLE

1. Describe and calculate the forces between like and unlike electric charges.

2. Identify the parts of the atom that carry electric charge.


3. Apply the concept of an electric field to describe how charges exert
force on other charges.
4. Sketch the electric field around a positive or negative point charge.

5. Describe how a conductor shields electric fields from its interior.


6. Describe the voltage and current in a circuit with a battery,
switch, resistor, and capacitor.
7. Calculate the charge stored in a capacitor.

CHARGE
CHARGES HOW DO ELECTRIC INTERACT?
TYPES OF CHARGE
 All ordinary matter contains both positive and negative charge.
 You do not usually notice the charge because most matter contains the exact
same number of positive and negative charges.
 An object is electrically neutral when it has equal amounts of both types of
charge

WHAT IS AN ELECTRIC CHARGE


 Electric charge is a property of tiny particles in atoms.
 The unit of electric charge is the coulomb (C).
 A quantity of charge should always be identified with a positive or a
negative sign.

ELECTRIC FORCES
 Electric forces are created between all electric charges.
 Because there are two kinds of charge (positive and negative) the electrical
force between charges can attract or repel.
THIS IS A VISUAL REPRESNTATION ON HOW CHARGES ATTRACT
AND REPEL

 The direction of current was historically defined as the direction that


positive charges move.
 Both positive and negative charges can carry current.In conductive liquids
(salt water) both positive and negative charges carry current
 In solid metal conductors, only the electrons can move, so current is carried
by the flow of negative electrons
 Electric current is the movement of electric charge through a substance.

CURRENT (AMPS) I =QT


Two coulombs of charge pass through a wire in five seconds.

CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS


 A semiconductor has a few free electrons and atoms with bound electrons
that act as insulators
COULOMB'S LAW
 Two single charges separated by a distance. Coulombs law relates
the force between them, the vector F1 is the force experienced by
q1, and the vector F2 is the force experienced by q2. When q1q2 >
0 the forces are repulsive (as in the image) and when q1q2 < 0 the
forces are attractive (opposite to the image). The magnitude of
the forces will always be equal to
.

 The force between two charges gets stronger as the charges move closer
together.
 The force also gets stronger if the amount of charge becomes larger

 The force between two charges is directed along the line connecting their
centers.
 Electric forces always occur in pairs according to Newton’s third law, like
all forces.
 The force between charges is directly proportional to the magnitude, or
amount, of each charge.
 Doubling one charge doubles the force.
 Doubling both charges quadruples the force.

 The force between charges is inversely proportional to the square of the


distance between them

 Doubling the distance reduces the force by a factor of 22 = (4), decreasing


the force to one- fourth its original value (1/4).
 This relationship is called an inverse square law because force and distance
follow an inverse square relationship.
CALCULATING FORCE

• Fields and forcesTwo balls are each given a static electric charge of one
tenthousandth (0.0001) of a coulomb.

•Calculate the force between the charges when they are separated by one-tenth
(0.1) of a meter.

• Coulomb is the term used to represent electric charge


GRAVITATIONAL FORCE
 Gravitational forces are far weaker than electric forces

 On the Earth’s surface, the gravitational field creates 9.8 N of force on each
kilogram of mass.
 With gravity, the strength of the field is in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)
because the field describes the amount of force per kilogram of mass
CONCLUTION
 The value of k depends upon the medium in. As for air, the value is
approximately which the charged objects are immersed 9.0 x 10 9 N /m2 /c2.
A point charge can be described using Coulomb’s law, which describes the
force between two objects accurately.. The centre of charge of a sphere,
regardless of how uniformly the charges are distributed, can be considered
its centre. A point charge resides at the centre of the sphere. Since
Coulomb’s law applies to point charges, the distance between the centres of
charge of each object is d in the equation.
 Coulomb s law can be expressed in the vector form as :
