ATOMIC Circle Xavier University Senior High School STEM 306 PHYSICS MIDTERMS REVIEWER [email protected] Atomic Circle - AtCi GENERAL PHYSICS 2 Electrostatics a branch of physics that deals with the phenomena and properties of stationary or slow-moving electric charges. ELECTRICITY Flow of electrical power/charge Secondary energy source -- We obtain it through the conversion of other sources of energy also known as primary sources (coal, natural gases, etc.) Can be carried by wires and used for heat, light, and power for machines ELEMENTARY CHARGE Represented by “e” Charge carried by a single proton Fundamental physical constant Proton (+e) Electron (-e) [email protected] Atomic Circle - AtCi GENERAL PHYSICS 2 ELECTRICAL CHARGE Physical property of an object that causes it to be attracted toward or repelled by another charged object generates and is influenced by a force called an electromagnetic force. Can be positive (proton) or negative (electron) Represented by (q). SI Unit of charge: Coulomb (C) Named after the French Physicist: Charles - Augustin de Coulomb [email protected] Atomic Circle - AtCi GENERAL PHYSICS 2 ELECTRIC FIELD The space surrounding a charged body Any charged particle placed in it will experience an electrical force. Every charge are associated with one Michael Faraday English Chemist introduced the use of electrical lines of force to map out an electrical field. PROPERTIES OF ELECTRIC LINES OF FORCE Starts on positively charged particles and ends on negatively charged particles or infinitely. Either intersect or break as they pass from one charge to another The greater the number of lines of force, the stronger the electric field CONCEPTS The neutral point is the point where no lines of force pass The electric field is zero at the neutral point Neutral points are where the resultant field is subtractive, and the electric fields are equal but oppositely directly. The neutral between two like charges is a point between the two charges and nearer the smaller charge [email protected] Atomic Circle - AtCi GENERAL PHYSICS 2 CONCEPTS For two unlike charges, lines of force can pass from positive to negative charge The neutral point cannot be between them; it is an external point along the line joining them and nearer the smaller charge. Coulomb's Law Like charges repel and unlike charges attract Electrical force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of the charges between two charged particles. (Iq1q2I) And is indirectly proportional to the square of the distance between the charged particles. (r^2) Mathematically written as: WHERE: F = electrostatic force in newtons (N) k = Coulomb's constant (9*10^9 Nm ^2/C^2 ) q1 and q2= charges in coulombs, (C) r = distance between the charges in metres, (m) The absolute value of the product of q1 and q2, is determined because only the magnitude of the force is to be computed. The Force magnitude F is always positive. Electric force F is a vector quantity, which may be positive or negative depending on its direction.

F = k q1q 2 r 2 -19 -19 F = (9×10 C )(1.602×10 C)(1.602×10 C) 9 Nm (3.8×10 m) -10 2 F = 1.596×10 N (repulsive) -9 [email protected] Atomic Circle - AtCi GENERAL PHYSICS 2 Superposition Principle each charge will exert a force on another charge as if no other charged objects are present the net force that a particular charge experiences due to a collection of charges as a vector sum of all the individual charges.
