ECE 3300 Electrostatics – Coulomb’s Law COULOMB’S LAW: Electric charges produce electric fields The ELECTRIC FIELD at some point P= E rˆ q q R (V / m) 2 3 4R 4R where r is a unit vector pointing from +q to P (the point where you want to find E, and R is a vector (not a unit vector) from q to P. The electric field will produce a FORCE on another charge q’: F = q’ E The ELECTRIC FLUX DENSITY D = E the ELECTRIC PERMITTIVITY = r o and o = 8.854e-12 F/m LINEAR MATERIAL: does not depend on the MAGNITUDE of E NON-LINEAR MATERIAL: does depend on the MAGNITUDE of E as distinguished from true CHANGES in material due heating, etc. (burns, melting, etc.) ISOTROPIC MATERIAL: does not depend on the DIRECTION of E ANISOTROPIC MATERIAL: does depend on the DIRECTION of E muscle and long nerves (due to lengthening of cells in one direction), some ceramics, ionosphere NON-DISPERSIVE: does not depend on the FREQUENCY of E DISPERSIVE: does depend on the FREQUENCY of E Electric Fields due to multiple point charges Rp is vector from origin to point where you want to find electric field Rs1 is vector from origin to the first charge q1 Rs2 is vector from origin to the second charge q2 E1 q1 ( R p Rs1 ) 4 | R p Rs1 |3 E2 q2 ( R p Rs 2 ) 4 | R p Rs 2 |3 E E1 E 2 1 q1 ( R p Rs1 ) q2 ( R Rs 2 ) 3 4 | R p Rs1 | | R p Rs 2 |3 qi ( R p Rsi ) 4 i 1 | R p Rsi |3 1 N Electric Fields due to a Charge Distribution (Sorry.. for some reason my vector symbol is not working below. ) 1. Define an ORIGIN at a convenient point 2. Write the vector Rs from the ORIGIN to the SOURCE(s) (charge) location If you used an origin at the center of the grid (0,0,0): Rs x s xˆ y s yˆ z s zˆ 3. Write the vector Rp from the ORIGIN to the location where you want to find the FIELD (field point). R p x p xˆ y p yˆ z p zˆ 4. Apply Coulomb’s Law a. Write the vector from the SOURCE(s) to the FIELD Rps = Rp - Rs b. Define the SOURCE (charge) distribution. (Note: This is a scalar.) dq = l dl (Line charge) dl = dx, dy, or dz dl = dr, r d, dz dl = dR, R d, Rsin d dq = s ds (Surface charge) ds = dx dy, dy dz, or dx dz ds = r ddz, drdz, r dr d ds = R2sin d d, Rsin dR d, R dR d dq = v dv (Volume charge) dv = dxdy dz dv = r dr d dz dv = R2sin dR d d c. Write the electric field caused by the charge distribution. dq dE 4 R ps Rˆ ps 2 Rˆ ps dq 3 4 R ps R ps R ps R ps To find the magnitude of the vector: Take each vector component, square it, sum them, and take the square root. |Rps| = sqrt (Rx2 + Ry2 + Rz2) d. Sum or integrate the sources to find the field. E endsource endsource startsource startsource dE 1 4 R ps 3 R ps dq Note: E, Rps, dE are all vectors.
