Electric Charges and Forces There are two types of charge: positive charges and negative charges REPEL REPEL ATTRACT Like charges repel, opposite charges attract. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Electrons, Protons, & Atoms Electrons carry negative charge. Protons carry positive charge. Electrons are loosely bound to atoms Protons are tightly locked within the nucleus. Objects are usually neutral but can easily acquire or lose electrons to become charged. Helium atom Electrons Protons Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Charging by Friction/Contact Electrons move easily so an object can become charged by rubbing electrons off the object’s surface. • Brush your hair with a plastic comb. • Walk across a carpet with plastic-soled shoes. Electrons taken off of fur onto rubber rod Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Demo: Electroscope The “legs” of an electroscope separate when the electroscope is charged due to the repulsion of like charge on the two legs. Charged ebonite rod deposits negative charge (electrons) onto electroscope. “Legs” Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Demo: Dial Electroscope Alternative design for electroscope Neutral Charged Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Demo: Van de Graff Generator Van de Graff deposits large quantities of excess charge on its globe. A person with long hair can become a human electroscope. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
+ + + + + Conservation of Charge Charge cannot be created nor destroyed. Objects become charged by transfer of charges. Electrons are rubbed off the hairs of a piece of fur, collecting and charging a plastic rod. Is the fur also charged? Positive or negative. Rod & Fur Neutral Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Conductors & Insulators Materials, such as metals, in which electrons flow freely are called electrical conductors. Materials, such as plastic and wood, in which electrons do not move easily are called electrical insulators. Materials, such as silicon, that can act as conductors or insulators under different conditions are called semiconductors. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Plastic Insulators Plastic insulation on step of van de Graff and charge wand keep charge from leaving the metal balls. Plastic insulation on wire prevents charge to leave wire except at the ends, where the conducting metal is exposed. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Demo: Tesla Coil Air is an insulator but at high voltages it can conduct electricity as lightning. Portable Tesla coil Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Tesla Coils Very high voltages achieved by large Tesla coils. Homemade, backyard model Fry’s Superstore, Fremont CA Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Coulomb’s Law Electric force has magnitude given by (Electric Force) = (k) x ( Charge of Object A ) x ( Charge of Object B) ( Distance ) x ( Distance ) DISTANCE Object A Object B Force Force Equal and opposite forces (Newton’s Third law) Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU

+ + + + + + Demo: Electroscope & Induction The legs of the electroscope separate when charged rod brought near the electroscope. Charge induction pushes electrons into the legs. Negatively charged rod repels electrons so they move as far away as possible. “Legs” Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Lightning Storms Charge separates inside of thunderclouds. The lower part of the cloud is negatively charged. This induces a positive charge on the ground. When the voltage difference is high enough, a lightning bolt can occur. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Demo: Lightning Rod Charge flows readily to and from sharp metal points. Purpose of a lightning rod is to discharge a building before lightning occurs. Discharge Lightning Rods Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU

Check Yourself What causes a stream of water to be deflected when you bring a charged object next to it? Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Electric Field Lines Electric field lines indicate the direction of electric force if a positive charge was placed in the electric field. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Demo: Streamers Paper streamers attached to the van de Graff show the direction of the electric field. Similar to hair-raising demo Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU

Electric Potential Energy Potential energy associated with electric force, similar to potential energy associated with gravitational force. Gravity Force Electric Force Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Electric Potential Electric potential is potential energy per charge, like temperature is internal energy per molecule. 5000 °F ? Check Yourself: Is this safe? Both situations are safe because the total amount of energy is small Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
Capacitors Capacitors are used to store separated positive and negative electric charges. Industrial capacitor Basic design is pair of conducting plates insulated from each other. Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU
