Charge
  • If you rub a piece of amber with fur the amber
    will attract bits of paper
  • Greek term for amber Elektronos from which we
    derive electron
  • If two amber rods are brought together, they will
    repel

5
If charges can attract or repel each other then
what do they exert on each other? (GR)
6
What does it suggest about charges that the force
between them can be both attractive and
repulsive?(GR)How is this different than the
force between masses? (Gravity) (GR)
7
If a piece of fur is rubbed against an amber rod,
the amber rod becomes negatively charged. What
is the sign of the charge of the fur? (TPS)
  1. Negative
  2. Positive
  3. It is uncharged
  4. Cannot be determined

Properties of Charge
  • Charges exert forces on each other
  • Forces can be repulsive or attractive
  • Two Types of Charge called /- due to Franklin
  • Like charges repel, opposite charges attract
  • Charge is conserved
  • Charge is quantized

10
Quantization of Charge
  • Basic unit of charge is the charge of an electron
  • e -1.602 x 10-19 C
  • The charge of a proton is opposite the charge of
    the electron
  • p 1.602 x 10-19 C e
  • SI (derived) unit of charge is the coulomb, C

11
Quantization of Charge (cont.)
  • The charge, q, on any object can be expressed as
    q Ne where N is some integer
  • Fundamental SI units 1 C 1 As (ampere second)

12
Ex How many electrons are there in -1 C of
charge?
13
Solutionq NeSolve for NN q/eN -1 C/
-1.602 x 10-19 CN 6.2 x 1018 electrons

17.5 charges and silk has -11.3. What if
anything is wrong with the students statement?
(TPS)
  1. The statement contains no errors
  2. The statement violates charge conservation
  3. The statement violates charge quantization

Insulators and Conductors
  • What is the difference between an insulator and a
    conductor? (BRST)

17
Insulators and Conductors
  • In an Insulator all of the electrons are strongly
    localized around an individual atom
  • In a Conductor about one electron per atom is
    shared by the metal as a whole. This electron is
    called a free electron

18
Two uncharged metal spheres are in contact. A
negatively charge amber rod is brought near one
of the spheres. Draw a sketch showing the charge
distribution on the spheres.

The electroscope
  • Simple Device Used to indicate charge
  • Two metal foil leaves are suspended from the
    bottom of a conducting rod

Electroscope Demonstration
  • What happens when a charged insulating rod is
    brought near the electroscope?
  • What happens when a charge insulating rod is
    rubbed against the electroscope?
  • What happens when you bring your hand near the
    electroscope?
  • What happens when you touch the charged
    electroscope?

Insulators vs. Conductors
  • An uncharged plastic rod is placed on the bulb of
    an electroscope. A charged plastic rod is
    brought near the other plastic rod but away form
    the electroscope. What will happen?
  • A piece of metal is placed on the bulb of an
    electroscope. A charge plastic rod is brought
    near the other plastic rod but away form the
    electroscope. What will happen?

25
A plastic rod is charged and brought near a few
small pieces of paper. What will happen to the
paper?
  1. Nothing since the paper is an insulator
  2. The paper will be attracted to the rod
  3. The paper will be repelled by the rod
  4. Cannot be determined

1 2 3 4 5
26
How is it possible that the insulating paper can
be attracted to the rod?
27
Induced Polarization
  • Bringing a charge near an insulator can cause a
    slight rearrangement of the electrons around the
    nucleus of the atom
  • The insulator can then be slightly attracted to
    charge
  • Ex. Rub a balloon on your head and stick it to
    the wall

28
Coulombs Law
  • Like charges repel
  • Opposite charges attract
  • Force depends inversely on the square of the
    distance between the charges

29
Charles Coulomb
  • Determined form of force between charges using a
    torsional balance

30

32
Two positive charges are separated by a known
distance. The distance is then doubled, how does
this affect the force? (TPS)
  1. The force is unchanged
  2. The force is doubled
  3. The force is halved

in direction. Which of the following is true
about the charges? (CT)
  1. The charges must be identical
  2. The charges are equal in magnitude and of

In what ways is Coulombs Law similar to Newtons
Law of Gravity?What is a significant difference
Coulombs Law and Newtons Law of Gravity
39
Comparison of Newtons Law of Gravity and
Coulombs Law
Inverse Square Law
Strength is proportional to product of source terms
Gravity is always attractive Electrostatic Force can be both attractive and repulsive
40
Ex. Find the ratio of the electrostatic force
between two protons and the gravitational force
between them if they are separated by .25 m.
41
Solution
42
1.24 x 1036
  • The electrostatic force is much stronger
  • Protons are like charges and thus in a nucleus of
    an atom will repel each other
  • Gravity is not strong enough to hold the nucleus
    together
  • Nucleus is held together by short range force
    called the Strong Force

43
The Electric Field
  • Theres a core question about long range forces
    such as the electrostatic force or the
    gravitational force.
  • If two charges are separated by a distance, then
    how do they know there is a force between them.

44
The Electric Field
  • Newtons answer for gravity was that they just do
    Action at a distance.
  • Michael Faraday borrowed an idea from magnetism
    and introduced tubes of force

45
Definition of the Electric Field
  • Consider a small positive charge called a test
    charge, q0 brought near a positive charge, Q

47
Suppose the test charge was moved further away
from the charge Q, how will the force vector
change?
  1. It will be larger
  2. It will be smaller
  3. It will not change
  4. Cannot be determined

1 2 3 4 5
48
Suppose the test charge was moved closer to the
charge Q, how will the force vector change?
  1. It will be larger
  2. It will be smaller
  3. It will not change

49
Definition of the Electric Field
  • The test charge will feel a force anywhere it is
    placed
  • The source charge affects the space around it
  • The effect on the space around it is the electric
    field
  • We test the electric field with the test charge,
    but the electric field is due to the source charge

50
Definition of the Electric Field
51
Definition of the Electric Field
  • Electric field is force per charge
  • The electric field is defined so that the test
    charge is positive
  • Units N/C

test charge of magnitude q0 2 µC. a) Sketch
the situation. b) What is the magnitude and
direction of the electric field at the location
of the test charge?
53
Ex. A test charge of magnitude is located in an
electric field of magnitude 200 N/C directed to
the right. a) Sketch the situation. b) Find
the magnitude and direction of the force on the
test charge.

    is given by

56
The Electric Field due to a Point Charge

Ex. A point P is 3.0 cm north of a charged
point particle with charge Q 3.5 pC. a)
Sketch the situation. b) Find the magnitude and
direction of the electric field at the point P.
61
Superposition
  • The electric field at a point due to several
    charges is the sum of the field due to the
    individual charges
  • Since the electric field is a vector, vector
    algebra must be used to find the sum
