ElectrostaticsElectrostatics is the study of electric
charge at rest. (Or more or less at rest, as opposed to
current electricity.)

Electrical ChargesElectric charge is a fundamental
property of matter. Two types of electric charges
Positive charge - every proton has a single positive charge.
Negative charge - every electron has a single negative charge.

Elementary ChargesProtons carry the smallest positive
charge.The smallest negative charge is the
charge on the electron.The charges carried by the proton and
electron are equal in size.The mass of the proton is about 2000
times the mass of the electron.

Units of ChargeThe SI unit of charge is the coulomb.The elementary charge of a proton or
an electron is 1.60 x 10−19 C.
The proton is positively charged, while the electron is negatively charged.

Electrical ChargeAn object with an excess of electrons
is negatively charged.An object with too few electrons (too
many protons) is positively charged.An object with the same number of
electrons and protons is neutral.

StrokingIf something gets a positive electric charge, then it follows that something else:
a) becomes equally positively charged.b) becomes equally negatively charged.c) becomes negatively charges, but not necessarily equally
negatively charged.d) becomes magnetized.

Charge is ConservedElectric charge is conserved -
Electric charge moves from one place to another - no case of the net creation or destruction of electric charge has ever been observed.
In solids, only electrons can move. In liquids, gasses, and plasmas, both positive
and negative ions are free to move.
![Page 13: Concept Summary Adapted from: Batesville High School Physics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062813/568164ab550346895dd6ad0f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Conductors & InsulatorsMaterials in which charges are free to
move about are called conductors.Materials in which charges are not free
to move about are called insulators.

“Creating” an Electric ChargeWhen you “create” an electric charge
(by rubbing your feet on a carpet) you are actually separating existing charges – not creating charges.
One object ends up with an excess of electrons (− charge), and the other a deficit of electrons (+ charge).

Charging by Friction If one neutral material has more affinity
for electrons than another (neutral) material, it will attract electrons from the other.
One material becomes negatively charged, the other positively charged.

Charging by Contact If a charged object is brought in contact
with a neutral object, charges will be repelled from (or attracted to) the charged object.
The neutral object will gain a charge of the same sign as the charged object.

GroundingProviding a path from a charged object
to the Earth is called grounding it.Charges will be attracted from (or
repelled to) the Earth by the charged object.
Since the Earth is so large, both the charged object and the Earth are neutralized.

Charging by Induction1. Bring a charged object near (but not
touching) a neutral object.2. Ground the neutral object.3. Remove the ground.4. Remove the charged object5. The neutral object now has a charge
opposite to the charged object.

Under the InfluenceTwo uncharged metal balls, X and Y, stand on glass rods. A third ball, Z, carrying a positive charge, is brought near the first two. A conducting wire is then run between X and Y. The wire is then removed, and ball Z is finally removed. When this is all done it is found that:
a) balls X and Y are still unchargedb) balls X and Y are both charged positivelyc) balls X and Y are both charged negativelyd) ball X is + and ball Y is −e) ball X is − and ball Y is +

PolarizationBringing a charged object near (but not
touching) a neutral object polarizes (temporarily separates) the charge of the neutral object. Like charges in the neutral object are
repelled by the charged object. Unlike charges in the neutral object are
attracted by the neutral object.The neutral object returns to normal
when the charged object is removed.

Electric DipolesAn object that is electrically neutral
overall, but permanently polarized, is called an electric dipole. Example: H20 molecule

Electrical ForcesThe electrical force between 2 charges
depends on: The size of each charge
More charge means more force. The distance between the charges
More distance means less force.

Electrical ForcesThe electrical force between 2 charges
is: Directly proportional to each charge. Inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the charges.
