SPEAKER: Professor Walter A. Robinson,
Department of Atmospheric Sciences
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
TIME: Thursday Jan. 13, 2005 at 4 PM
Essays on Quizzes/Surveys:
I do read and comment on them when appropriate.
Reserve Books
Several books are on reserve in the library:
There will be required, supplemental readings from::
Biomedical Applications of Introductory Physics
Optional, suggested, readings from::
Electricity and Magnetism, Purcell
Div, Grad, Curl and all that
For review:
First-year Calculus, Hille and Salas
Other optional books may be placed for your enjoyment.
Matter and Charges
•All matter is made of positive and negative charges (or neutral)
•An object’s total charge is very close to zero
•When an object becomes charged, a tiny fraction of its charged
particles (usually electrons) are lost or gained
•These particles (usually electrons) can flow through objects
•Some materials are better at allowing the flow of electrons than
others
Conductor
A material that allows
electrons or other
charged particles to
flow freely
Insulator
A material that resists
the flow of electrons
and other charged
particles
Elementary Charge
•Charges seem to come only in integer multiples of a fundamental
charge unit called e
•We will treat e as a positive number (some sources treat it as
negative)
e = 1.602  10-19 C

Some ways to charge objects
•By rubbing dissimilar
objects
•By chemical
processes
•By proximity between a
charge and a conductor –
charging by induction
•By physical contact
between a charge and
a conductor

•Like charges repel, unlike charges attract
•Force is directly along a line joining the two charges

•An inverse square law, just like gravity
•Can be attractive or repulsive – unlike gravity
•Constant is enormous compared to gravity
•Obeys the superposition principle just like gravity
Coulomb’s Law: Applied
A Helium nucleus (charge +2e) is separated from one of its
electrons (charge –e) by about 3.00 10-11m. What is the force the
nucleus exerts on the electron? Is it attractive or repulsive?

Coulomb’s Law vs. Gravity
A Helium nucleus (charge +2e) is separated from one of its
electrons (charge –e) by about 3.00 10-11m, and we just
calculated the electrostatic forces involved.

Suppose we could adjust the distance between the
nucleus (considered as a point particle) and one
electron. Can we find a point at which the
electric and gravitational forces are equal?
A) Yes, move the particles apart.
B) Yes, move the particles together.
C) No, they will never be equal.

•Conductors allow free flow of
charge
•Like charges repel
•So the charges will redistribute
themselves over the sphere
Spherical Shells
•Just like with gravity, a charge
outside feels the charge from the
sphere as if it were concentrated
in the middle

Coulomb’s Law
My body contains about 31028 electrons, all repelling each other.
How come I don’t explode?
A) Electrons attract each other, not repel each other
B) The gravitational force is so strong it holds me together,
overcoming electric forces
C) There are also positive charges that cancel out the negative
charges
D) Electrical forces are too weak to consider
Electric Fields
•Electric Field is the ability to extert a force at a distance on a
charge
•It is defined as force on a test charge divided by the charge
•Denoted by the letter E
•Units N/C

E-Field: Why?
•When we have a charge distribution, and we want to know
what effect they would have external charges, we can either
•Do many sums (or integrations) every time a charge comes
in to find the force on that charge
•Or calculate the field from the charge distribution, and
multiply the field by the external charge to obtain the force
•Simplification!

Quiz
Two test charges are brought separately into the vicinity of a charge +Q.
First, test charge +q is brought to point A a distance r from charge +Q. Next, the +q
charge is removed and a test charge +2q is brought to point B a distance 2r from
charge +Q. Compared with the electric field of the charge at A, the electric field of
the charge at B is:
