Lecture 28 Slide 10
Effects of Electric Charge
• All these phenomena involve different materials rubbing
against one another.
– Electrostatic effects can be demonstrated by rubbing plastic or
glass rods with different furs or fabrics.
– Small wads of dry, paperlike material called pith balls are light
enough to be strongly influenced by electrostatic forces.
– When a plastic rod, vigorously rubbed with cat fur, is brought
near the pith balls, at first the pith balls are attracted to the rod
like bits of iron to a magnet.
– After contacting the rod, the pith balls
dance away from the rod.
– They are now repelled by the rod and
also by each other.

Lecture 28 Slide 11
Effects of Electric Charge
• A repulsive force must be acting between the two pith balls
after they have been in contact with the rod.
– Perhaps the balls have received something (call it electric charge)
from the rod that is responsible for the force we observe.
– This charge was somehow generated by rubbing the rod with the cat
fur.
– The force that is exerted by one stationary charge on another is
called the electrostatic force.

Lecture 28 Slide 12
• Experiments with different materials indicate that there are two
types of charge.
• An electroscope consists of two metallic-foil leaves suspended
from a metal post inside a glass-walled container.
– If the foil leaves are uncharged, they will hang straight down.
– If a charged rod is brought in contact with the metal ball on top, the
leaves immediately spread apart and stay apart, even if the rod is
removed.
– If an object of the same charge as the
original rod is later brought near the
metal ball, the leaves will spread
farther apart.
– An object with the opposite charge will
make the leaves come closer together.
– A larger charge produces a larger
effect.

Lecture 28 Slide 13
• Benjamin Franklin introduced the names positive and negative for
the two types of charge.
• He also proposed that a single
fluid was being transferred
from one object to another
during charging.
– A positive charge resulted from
a surplus of the fluid, and a
negative charge resulted from
a shortage of the fluid.
– Franklin arbitrarily proposed
that the charge on a glass rod
when rubbed with silk be called
positive.

• Franklin’s model comes surprisingly close to our modern view.
• When objects are rubbed together, electrons may be
transferred from one object
to the other.
– Electrons are small, negatively
charged particles present in all
atoms and, therefore, in all
materials.
– A negatively charged object has
a surplus of electrons, and a
positively charged object has a
shortage of electrons.
– The atomic or chemical properties
of materials dictate which way the
electrons flow when objects are
rubbed together.

Conductors and Insulators
• Different materials behave differently in the
presence of electrostatic forces.
– Charge can readily flow through conductors:
• metals, like copper, silver, iron, gold; our bodies
– Materials that do not ordinarily permit charge to flow are
insulators:
• plastic; glass; ceramics; other nonmetallic materials
– Charge flows much more readily through several miles
of copper wire than through the few inches of insulating
ceramic material.

are intermediate between a good
conductor and a good insulator.
• Their importance to modern technology is enormous.

Can you charge an object without actually touching
it with another charged object?
• Charging by induction involves
the conducting property of
metals:
– Charge a plastic rod with cat
fur and bring the rod near a
metal ball mounted on an
insulating post.
– The electrons in the metal ball
are repelled by the negative
rod.
Introduction Section 0 Lecture 1 Slide
– There
is a negative charge
buildup on the side opposite
the rod, and a positive charge
on the near side.

Can you charge an object without actually touching it with
another charged object?
• To charge the ball by
induction, now touch the ball
with your finger on the side
opposite the rod.
– The negative charge flows
from the ball to your body,
since it is still repelled by the
negative rod.
– If you now remove your
finger and then the rod, a net

ball.

Charging By Induction
• Charging by induction illustrates the mobility of charges
on a conducting object such as the metal ball.
– The process will not work with a glass ball.
– Charging by induction is an important process in machines
used for generating electrostatic charges, and in many
other practical devices.
– It also explains some of the phenomena associated with
lightning storms.

Charging By Induction
Why are insulators attracted to charged
objects?
• Recall that the pith balls were
attracted to the charged rod
before they were charged
themselves.
– Electrons are not free to move
in the insulating material of the
pith balls.
– However, within each atom or
molecule, charges can move.
– Each atom becomes an electric
dipole: the center of the

displaced from the center of the
positive charge.
– The material is polarized.

Lecture 28 Slide 20
Charging By Induction
• Since the negatively charged surface is closer to the rod
than the positively charged surface, it experiences a
stronger electrostatic force.
– The overall effect is that the pith ball is attracted to the
charged rod, even though the net (total) charge on the pith
ball is zero.
– After the ball comes in contact with the charged rod, some
of the charge on the
rod is transferred to the
pith ball.
– The pith ball is then
positively charged like the
rod, and so is repelled by
the rod.

Polarization
• Polarization explains why small bits of paper or styrofoam
are attracted to a charged object such as a sweater rubbed
against some other material.
• Electrostatic precipitators used to remove particles from
smoke in industrial smoke stacks use this property.
– Polarized particles are attracted to charged plates in the
precipitator, removing them from the emitted gases.
