Study Notes

Electric Field and Charge

  • Electric field is a force that surrounds charged objects, and its strength depends on the amount of charge.
  • The greater the charge, the stronger the electric field.
  • Electric field strength is directly proportional to the amount of charge.

Electric Field Strength and Distance

  • When a charged object is brought closer to another charged object, the electric field between them increases.
  • The electric field strength decreases with an increase in distance between the charged objects.
  • As the distance between charged objects decreases, the electric field strength increases.
