The Electric Field
 The Coulomb’s law tells us how a charged particle interacts
with another charged particle.
 The question now: Since the particles do not touch, how can
one particle push or pull the other? How can there be such an
action at a distance with no visible connection between the
particles?
 The concept of Electric Field is introduced to explain this
question.

The Electric Field
 The electric field is a vector field. It consists of a distribution of
vectors, one for each point in the region around a charged
object.
 We can define the electric field at some point, such at point P,
by placing a positive charge q0, called a test charge.
→
 We then measure the electrostatic force F that acts on the test
charge.
→
 The electric field E at point P is defined as:
F
E
q0
• The direction of
force defines the
direction of field

The Electric Field
 The positive test charge q0 does not “see” the charged object.
Instead, it “feels” the electric field produced by the charged
object and gives response.
 The SI unit for the electric field is the newton per coulomb
(N/C).
 Note: The field at point P existed both before and after the
test charge was put there.
 Here, we assume that the presence of the
test charge does not affect the charge
distribution on the charged object.

Electric Field Lines
 In order to understand it better, we will try to visualize the
electric field now.
 Michael Faraday introduced the idea of electric fields in the
19th century and thought of the space around a charged body
as filled with electric field lines .
 The direction of the field lines indicate the direction of the
electric force acting on a positive test charge.
 The density of the field lines is proportional to the magnitude
of the field.
• The field strength is
related to the number of
lines that cross a certain
unit area perpendicular
to the field

7/5
Electric Field Lines
 The figure shows a positive test charge,
placed near a sphere of uniform negative
charge.
 The electrostatic force points toward the
center of the sphere.
 The electric field vectors at all
points are directed radially toward
the sphere.
 The spreading of the field lines with
distance from the sphere tells us
that the magnitude of the electric
field (field strength) decreases with
distance from the sphere.
Erwin Sitompul
University Physics: Wave and Electricity
7/6
Electric Field Lines
 Electric field lines extend away from positive charge (where
they originate) and toward negative charge (where they
terminate).
Erwin Sitompul
University Physics: Wave and Electricity
7/7
Electric Field Lines
 The figure below shows an infinitely large, nonconducting
sheet (or plane) with a uniform distribution of positive charge
on one side.
 Due to symmetry, some forces will cancel one another.
 The net electrostatic force on the positive test charge will be
perpendicular to the sheet and point away from it.

The Electric Field Due to a Point Charge

on a positive test charge q0 is:

 The field of a positive point charge is
shown on the right, in vector form.
 The magnitude of the field depends
only on the distance between the point
charge (as the field source) and the
location where the field is measured.
Erwin Sitompul
University Physics: Wave and Electricity
7/9
The Electric Field Due to a Point Charge
 Electric field is a vector quantity.
 Thus, the net, or resultant, electric field due to more than one
point charge is the superposition of the field due to each
charge.
 The net electric field at the position of the test charge, due to
n point charges, is:

A Point Charge in an Electric Field
→
 The electrostatic force F acting
→ on a charged particle
→ located
in an external electric field E has the direction of E if the
charge q of →
the particle is positive and has the opposite
direction of E if negative.
F  qE
 The motion of charged particle can now be analyzed by using
the Newton’s laws. The electrostatic force, if not in check, will
accelerate a charged particle.

(a) In the figure, what is the direction

(c) If, instead, the electron is initially
moving rightward, will its speed
increase, decrease, or remain

• The direction of force and field are the same on
positive charge, but opposite on negative charge.
• The acceleration has the same direction as the force.

Measuring the Elementary Charge
 Robert A. Millikan in 1910-1913 devised an apparatus to
measure the elementary charge e.
 When tiny oil drops are sprayed into chamber A, some
become charged, either + or –. They then drift to chamber C.
 If switch S is open, battery B has no
electrical effect on chamber C. If
switch S is closed, the battery
causes the plates to be charged and
set up
→a downward-directed electric
field E in chamber C.
 Negatively charged drop will tend to
drift upward, positively charged drop
will drift downward.
 By timing the motion of oil drops, the
effect of charge q can be
determined, q = ne, where n is
Millikan oil-drop
integer and e = 1.60210–19 C.

Pollination and Electrostatics
 The ability of a bee to transport pollen from flower to flower
depends on the difference of electric charge existing the bee
(positive), the pollen grain (neutral) and the stigma (negative,
because electrically connected to the ground).

Ink-Jet Printing
 Ink-jet printer is an invention to meet the need for high-quality,
high-speed printing.
 The figure below shows a negatively charged ink drop moving
between two→
conducting plate. A uniform downward-directed
electric field E has been set up.
 The drop is deflected upward and then strikes the→paper at a
position that is determined by the magnitudes of E and the
charge q of the drop.

7/22
Example 4
An ink drop with a mass m of 1.310–10 kg and a negative
charge of magnitude Q = 1.510–13 C enters the region
between the plates of an ink-jet printer. The drop initially moves
along the x axis with the speed vx = 18 m/s. The length L of
each plate is 1.6 cm. The plates are charged and thus produce
an electric field at all points between them.
→
Assume that field E is downward directed, is uniform, and has
a magnitude of 1.4106 N/C.
What is the vertical deflection of the drop at the far edge of the
plates? (The gravitational force on the drop is small relative to
the electrostatic force acting on the drop and can be
neglected.)
