Physics 102: Lecture 02
Coulomb’s Law
and Electric Fields
Today we will …
• get some practice using Coulomb’s Law
• learn the concept of an Electric Field
Physics 102: Lecture 2, Slide 1
Recall Coulomb’s Law
• Magnitude of the force between charges q1 and q2
separated a distance r:
F = k q1q2/r2
k = 9x109 Nm2/C2
• Force is
– attractive if q1 and q2 have opposite sign
– repulsive if q1 and q2 have same sign
• Units:
– q’s have units of Coulombs (C)
• charge on proton is 1.6 x 10-19 C
– r has units of m
– F has units of N

Electric Field
• Charged particles create electric fields.
– Direction is the same as for the force that a + charge
would feel at that location.
– Magnitude given by:

r = 1x10-10 m

E = (9109)(1.610-19)/(10-10)2 N = 1.41011 N/C (to the right)

What is the direction of the electric field at point B?
71% 1) Left
“it is closer to the negative charge, and the field lines point toward
negative charges .”
“B only has the charge from the negative which is pushing away from
15% 2) Right itself .”
13% 3) Zero
“electric fields of equal magnitudes but opposite directions are
present due to the positive and negative charges .”
Since charges have equal magnitude, and point B is closer
to the negative charge net electric field is to the left

Comparison:
Electric Force vs. Electric Field
• Electric Force (F) – the actual force felt by a real
charge at some location
• Electric Field (E) – found for a location only (any
location) – tells what the electric force would be if
a charge were located there:
F = Eq
• Both are vectors, with magnitude and direction.
Ok, what is E actually good for?

E inside of conductor
• Conductor  electrons free to move
– Electrons feels electric force - will move until
they feel no more force (F=0)
– F=Eq: if F=0 then E=0

Recap
• E Field has magnitude and direction:
– E  F/q
– Calculate just like Coulomb’s law
– Careful when adding vectors
• Electric Field Lines
– Density gives strength (# proportional to charge.)
– Arrow gives direction (Start + end on –)
• Conductors
– Electrons free to move  E = 0
