electric charge
charge
the force acts on the charged particles themselves
has a tendency to spread itself as evenly as possible over a conducting surface
electromagnetic force
coloumb law
the magnitude of the electromagnetic force whether it's repulsive or attractive
relates the force to the product of the charges
has an inverse-square relation to the distance between them
second only in strength to the strong interaction
it operates over all distances
one of the four fundamental forces of nature
the origin of charge
subatomic particles which have the property of electric charge
electrons and protons
conserved quantity
the net charge within an isolated system
remain constant
within the charge
charged maybe transferred between bodies
direct contact
passing along a conducting material
wire
the informal term static electricity
net presence (imbalance) of charge on a body
dissimilar materials are rubbed together
transferring charge from one to the other
electrostatic force
investigated
in the late eighteenth century
by charles augustin the coulomb
exert force on each other
charge manifests itself in two opposing forms
like-charged objects repel
opposite-charged objects attracted
charges exert a force on each other
