Electric Charges and Fields Quiz

Electric charge is the property of matter due to which it experiences a force when placed in an electromagnetic field.

A point charge is an accumulation of electric charges at a point, without spatial extent.

Electrons are the smallest and lightest fundamental particles in an atom having negative charge and are surrounded by an electrostatic field.

<p>Coulomb's law describes the force between two charged objects and is given by the equation F=k(q1q2/r^2), where F is the force, q1 and q2 are the charges, r is the distance between the charges, and k is Coulomb's constant.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative charges in a system, and is given by the product of the magnitude of the charges and the distance between them.</p> Signup and view all the answers
