  1. ELECTROSTATICS: The study of the behavior of stationary charges ELECTRIC CHARGE There are two types of electric charge, arbitrarily called positive and negative. Rubbing certain electrically neutral objects together (e.g., a glass rod and a silk cloth) tends to cause the electric charges to separate. In the case of the glass and silk, the glass rod loses negative charge and becomes positively charged while the silk cloth gains negative charge and therefore becomes negatively charged. After separation, the negative charges and positive charges are found to attract one another.

  2. If the glass rod is suspended from a string and a second positively charged glass rod is brought near, a force of electrical repulsion results. Negatively charged objects also exert a repulsive force on one another. These results can be summarized as follows: unlike charges attract and like charges repel.

  3. Electrons are free to  move  in metals. Nuclei remain in place; electrons move to bottom CONSERVATION OF ELECTRIC CHARGE In the process of rubbing two solid objects together, electrical charges are notcreated. Instead, both objects contain both positive and negative charges. During the rubbing process, the negative charge is transferred from one object to the other leaving one object with an excess of positive charge and the other with an excess of negative charge. The quantity of excess charge on each object is exactly the same.

  4. Charged comb attracts neutral bits of paper. Charged comb attracts neutralwater molecules. The law of conservation of electric charge: "The net amount of electric charge produced in any process is zero." Another way of saying this is that in any process electric charge cannot be created or destroyed, however, it can be transferred from one object to another.

  5. The SI unit of charge is the coulomb (C). 1 C = 6.25 x 1018 electrons or protons The charge carried by the electron is represented by the symbol -e, and the charge carried by the protonis +e. A third particle, which carries no electrical charge, is the neutron. e = 1.6 x 10-19 C melectron= 9.11 x 10-31 kg mproton = 1.672 x 10-27 kg mneutron = 1.675 x 10-27 kg.

  6. Rubber scrapes electronsfrom fur atoms. Experiments performed early in this century have led to the conclusion that protons and neutrons are confined to the nucleus of the atom while the electrons exist outside of the nucleus. When solids are rubbed together, it is the electrons that are transferred from one object to the other. The positive charges, which are located in the nucleus, do not move.

  7. INSULATORS AND CONDUCTORS An insulator is a material in which the electrons are tightly held by the nucleus and are not free to move through the material. There is no such thing as a perfect insulator, however examples of good insulators are: glass, rubber, plastic and dry wood. A conductoris a material through which electrons are free to move through the material. Just as in the case of the insulators, there is no perfect conductor. Examples of good conductors include metals, such as silver, copper, gold and mercury.

  8. A few materials, such as silicon, germanium and carbon, are called semiconductors. At ordinary temperature, there are a few free electrons and the material is a poor conductor of electricity. As the temperature rises, electrons break free and move through the material. As a result, the ability of a semiconductor to conduct improves with temperature.

  9. Some electrons leave rod and spread over sphere. Charging by Contact  

  10. Rod does not touch sphere.  It pushes electrons out of the back side of the sphere and down the wire to ground.  The ground wire is disconnected to prevent the return of the electrons from ground, then the rod is removed. Charging by Induction    

  11. INDUCED ELECTRIC CHARGE If a negatively charged rod is brought near an uncharged electrical conductor, the negative charges in the conductor travel to the far end of the conductor. The positive charges are not free to move and a charge is temporarily induced at the two ends of the conductor. Overall, the conductor is still electrically neutral and if the rod is removed a redistribution of the negative charge will occur.

  12. If the metal conductor istouched by a person’s finger or a wire connected to ground, it is said to be grounded. The negative charges would flow from the conductor to ground. If the ground is removed and then the rod is removed, a permanent positive charge would be left on the conductor. The electrons would move until the excess positive charge was uniformly distributed over the conductor.

  13. Charge on Metals Metal Ball Excess charge on the surface of a uniform metal spreads out. Charge on Insulators Plastic Ball  Charge on insulating materials doesn't  move easily. Charge on Metal Points Excess charge on a metalaccumulates at points.Example: lightning rods. CHARGE DISTRIBUTIONS

  14. Fine mist of negatively charged gold particles adhere to positively charged protein on fingerprint. Negatively charged paint adheres to positively charged metal. Applications of Electrostatic Charging 

  15. COULOMB’S LAW Coulomb’s Law states that two point charges exert a force (F) on one another that is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of the charges (q) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance (r) between their centers. The equation is: F = electrostatic force (N) q = charge (C) k = 9x109 N. m2/C2 r = separation between charges (m)

  16. The value of k can also be expressed in terms of the permittivity of free space (εo): 9x109 N. m2/C2 The proportionality constant (k) can only be used if the medium that separates the charges is a vacuum. If the region between the point charges is not a vacuum then the value of the proportionality constant to be used is determined by dividing k by the dielectric constant(K). For a vacuum K = 1, for distilled water K = 80, and for wax paper K = 2.25

  17. 16.1 Two charges q1 = -8 μC and q2= +12 μC are placed 120mm apart in the air. What is the resultant force on a third charge q3 = -4 μC placed midway between the other charges? FR F2 q1 = -8 μC q2= +12 μC q3 = -4 μC r = 0. 120m F1 - q1 - q3 + q2 = 80 N = 120 N FR = 80 + 120 = 200 N, to the right

  18. 16.2 Three charges q1 = +4 nC, q2 = -6 nC and q3 = -8 nC are arranged as shown. Find the resultant force on q3due to the other two charges. F1 FR q1 = +4 nC q2= -6 nC q3 = -8 nC F2 37˚ θ = 2.88x10-5 N = 6.75x10-5 N

  19. FR F1 From the FBD: F2 37˚ θ Σ Fy = F1 sin 37˚ = (2.88x10-5)(sin 37˚) = 1.73x10-5 N Σ Fx = F2 - F1 cos 37˚ = (6.75x10-5) - (2.88x10-5)(cos 37˚) = 4.45x10-5 N = 4.8x10-5 N FR (4.8x10-5 N, 21˚) θ = 21˚

  20. ELECTRIC FIELD An electric field is said to exit in a region of space in which an electric charge will experience an electric force. The magnitude of the electric field intensity is given by: Units: N/C

  21. The direction of the electric field intensity at a point in space is the same as the direction in which a positive charge would move if it were placed at that point. The electric field linesor lines of force indicate the direction. The electric field is strongest in regions where the lines are close together and weak when the lines are further apart.

  22. 16.3 The electric field intensity between two plates is constant and directed downward. The magnitude of the electric field intensity is 6x104 N/C. What are the magnitude and direction of the electric force exerted on an electron projected horizontally between the two plates? E = 6x104 N/C qe = 1.6x10-19 C F = qE = 1.6x10-19 (6x104) = 9.6x10-15 N, upward

  23. 16.4 Show that the gravitational force on the electron of example 16-3 may be neglected. me = 9.1x10-31 kg Fg = mg = 9.1x10-31 (9.8) = 8.92x10-30 N The electric force is larger than the gravitational force by a factor of 1.08x1015!

  24. The electric field intensity E at a distance r from a single charge q can be found as follows: Units: N/C

  25. 16.5 What is the electric field intensity at a distance of 2 m from a charge of -12 μC? r = 2 m q = -12 μC = 27x103 N/C, towards q

  26. When more than one charge contributes to the field, the resultant field is the vector sum of the contributions from each charge. Units: N/C

  27. 16.6 Two point charges q1= -6 nC and q2 = +6 nC, are 12 cm apart, as shown in the figure. Determine the electric field a. At point A q1= -6 nC q2 = +6 nC E1 ER E2 = 3.38x104 N/C, left = 8.44x103 N/C, left

  29. 16.6 Two point charges q1= -6 nC and q2 = +6 nC, are 12 cm apart, as shown in the figure. Determine the electric field b. At point B E2 q1= -6 nC q2 = +6 nC 37º θ ER E1 = 6.67x103 N/C, down = 2.4x103 N/C at 37˚

  30. 16.6 Two point charges q1= -6 nC and q2 = +6 nC, are 12 cm apart, as shown in the figure. Determine the electric field b. At point B From FBD E2 37º Σ Ex = - E2cos 37˚ = - (2.4x103)(cos 37˚) = -1916.7N/C θ ER E1 Σ Fy = E2 sin 37˚- E1 = (2.4x103)(sin 37˚) - (6.67x103) = - 5225.6 N/C = 5566 N/C

  31. 16.6 Two point charges q1= -6 nC and q2 = +6 nC, are 12 cm apart, as shown in the figure. Determine the electric field b. At point B E2 37º θ ER E1 = 70˚ 180˚ + 70˚ = 250˚ ER (5566 N/C, 250˚)
