Electric Fields [Chapter 23] ▪ Properties of Electric Charges ▪ Coulomb’s Law ▪ The Electric Field ▪ Electric Field Lines ▪ Motion of a Charged Particle in a Uniform Electric Field Properties of Electric Charges Static electricity Properties of Electric Charges Static electricity ▪ On a dry day when you walk across a carpeted room wearing socks. Charge is transferred between the carpet and your socks and between your socks and your body. ▪ Electrons were transferred from the carpet to your socks and your body, so they built up a negative charge. ▪ When touching the doorknob, the charges suddenly jumped to the metal, creating the feeling of getting shocked. Properties of Electric Charges Properties of Electric Charges Types of Charge ▪ Electric charge is not created by these processes; it is just transferred from one object to another. ▪ The law of conservation of charge The net charge of a closed system never changes. ▪ There are two kinds of electric charges, which were given the names positive and negative by Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790). ▪ Electrons are identified as having negative charge, and protons are positively charged. ▪ Charges of the same sign repel one another and charges with opposite signs attract one another. Properties of Electric Charges ▪ A neutral atom has equal numbers of protons and electrons, a balance of positive and negative charge. ▪ If the number of electrons and protons is not equal, then the atom is called an ion and has a nonzero net charge. ▪ If the ion has more electrons than protons, its net charge is negative; if the ion has fewer electrons than protons, its net charge is positive.

Electric Field Lines ▪ The electric field lines for two point charges of equal magnitude but opposite signs (an electric dipole). ▪ Because the charges are of equal magnitude, the number of lines that begin at the positive charge must equal the number that terminate at the negative charge. Electric Field Lines ▪ The electric field lines in the vicinity (‫ )ﺑﺠﻮار‬of two equal positive point charges. ▪ The lines are nearly radial at points close to either charge, and the same number of lines emerges from each charge because the charges are equal in magnitude. ▪ At great distances from the charges, the field is approximately equal to that of a single point charge of magnitude 2q. Electric Field Lines ▪ The electric field lines associated with a positive charge +2q and a negative charge –q. ▪ The number of lines leaving +2q is twice the number terminating at -q. ▪ Only half the lines that leave the positive charge reach the negative charge. The remaining half terminate on a negative charge we assume to be at infinity. ▪ At distances much greater than the charge separation, the electric field lines are equivalent to those of a single charge +q.
