Electrostatics
• Ancient Greeks were familiar with electrostatic phenomenon.
• A piece of amber rubbed with fur could attract small objects over a distance.

Think
• What is another force that acts over a distance?

Electric Nature of Matter• Atoms are made of protons and electrons.
• Electrons (negative charge) are free to move, while protons (positive charge) are not as free to move.
• Matter usually has a balanced charge.

Charges
Like charges repel. Unlike charges attract.

Static Electricity: Definition
• An imbalance of charge.
• Usually it is the electrons that move.

Mechanisms of Charge Imbalance
• Contact/Peeling:– Rub balloon on hair.
• Conduction:– Touch a charged object
to a neutral object.
• Induction:– Bring a charged object
close to a neutral object.
positive negative neutral

Van de Graff Generator
• Like amber and fur, a rubber belt transfers charge from a wool roller to the dome.
• The charge builds up and is distributed on the surface of the sphere.

Electrostatic Forces
• We have seen that electric charges exert forces on other electric charges.
Like charges repel. Unlike charges attract.

• What factors might affect the magnitude of this electrostatic force?

Electrostatic Forces
• Coulombs Law
Like charges repel. Unlike charges attract.
F = Kq1q2

Coulomb’s Law: force between two charged particles
• K = 9 x 109 Nm2/C2 (electrostatic constant)• q = value of charge in Coulombs
• A comb has a charge of about 1 microcoulomb (10-6 C)
• r = distance between charges.• Note the inverse square relationship.
F = Kq1q2

Think
• What is another inverse square relationships we have seen?

Field Lines
• Field Lines start and end on charges.
• The density of field lines is a measure of the strength of the field.

This is defined as the force per unit charge acting at a point in the field.

What is electricity?
• The interaction between charged particles of matter.
• We discussed “static” electricity or charge imbalance – how about if charges are moving?

Current Electricity
• Current = flow of charge, such as electrons through a wire in a circuit.
