    Study Notes

    Electric Charge

    • The SI unit for electric charge is the Coulomb (C).

    Coulomb's Law

    • Coulomb's Law describes the force between two charges.
    • The force 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 charges.

    Electric Field Strength

    • The electric field strength at a distance $r$ from a point charge $Q$ is given by the equation $E = kQ/r^2$, where $k$ is Coulomb's constant.

    Capacitance

    • Capacitance is the ability of a capacitor to store an electrical charge.
    • The relationship between charge (Q), voltage (V), and capacitance (C) is given by the equation $Q = CV$.

    Electric Potential Energy

    • Electric potential energy is the potential energy that a charge possesses due to its position in an electric field.
    • The electric potential energy between two point charges is inversely proportional to the distance between them and directly proportional to the product of the charges.
