Static Electricity Formula
Static Electricity Formula
The force (F) between two charged objects (A and B) is calculated using Coulomb's Law: F = K * qA * qB / r^2, where K is Coulomb's constant, qA and qB are the charges of the objects, and r is the distance between them.
Electric Field Strength
Electric Field Strength
Electric field strength (E) is the force (F) on a charge (q) divided by the charge itself: E = F/q. It also relates to the field due to a point charge as E = K*q/r^2, where K is Coulomb's constant, q is the charge, and r is the distance.
Electric Potential Difference
Electric Potential Difference
The change in electric potential energy (ΔV) per unit charge when moving a charge through an electric field, given as ΔV = W/q or E*d, where W is the work done to move a charge, q is the charge and d is the distance through the field.
