Electrostatics ELECTROSTATICS Electricity at rest A Bit of History Ancient Greeks – Observed electric and magnetic phenomena as early as 700 BC Found that amber, when rubbed, became electrified and attracted pieces of straw or feathers Magnetic forces were discovered by observing magnetite attracting iron A Bit More History William Gilbert – – 1600 Found that electrification was not limited to amber Charles Coulomb – – 1785 Confirmed the inverse square relationship of electrical forces History Final Hans Oersted – – 1820 Compass needle deflects when placed near an electrical current Michael Faraday – A wire moved near a magnet, an electric current is observed in the wire Properties of Electric Charges Two types of charges exist – – positive and negative Named by Benjamin Franklin •Like charges repel •Opposite charges attract + + + - - + - - Charges continued + The natural order is balanced charges - - + + - + - - •Unbalanced charges are possible + - + + + - - - + - Net charge of zero + - + + + + + - - - - + + - + - Question #2 •The charge on sphere 2 is three times the charge on sphere 1 • Which force diagram is correct? • A,B,C,D, or E (none of them) More Properties of Charge Positive charge carrier is the proton – Protons do not move from one material to another Held in Nucleus Negative charge carrier is the electron (e-) – An object becomes charged (+ or -) by gaining or losing electrons More Properties of Charge Electric charge is always conserved – – Charge is not created, only exchanged Charging occurs through the exchange of electrons Lose – Gain a positive charge Gain – an electron an electron Gain a negative charge Properties of Charge, final The SI unit of charge is the Coulomb (C) Charge is quantized – All charges are a multiple of the fundamental unit of charge, symbolized by (e) – Electrons have a charge of e e- = -1.602 x 10-19 C Charge of -2 = 2* e- = 2* (-1.602 x 10-19 C) – Protons have a charge of e+ – e+ = 1.602 x 10-19 C – Charge of +2 = 2* e+ = 2* (1.602 x 10-19 C) Conductors Conductors: materials in which the electric charges move freely – – - - Copper, aluminum and silver are good conductors When a conductor is charged in a small region, the charge readily distributes itself over the entire surface of the material - - - - - - - - Insulators Insulators : materials in which electric charges do not move freely – – Glass and rubber are examples of insulators When insulators are charged by rubbing, only the rubbed area becomes charged There is no tendency for the charge to move into other regions of the material semiconductors : characteristics between those of insulators and conductors – Silicon and germanium are examples Charging… Three ways – Friction Mechanical – Conduction (or Contact) Direct – motion (rubbing) contact (no rubbing) Induction Charge alteration without any contact Charging by Friction Self-explanatory… (demo) Charging by Conduction A charged object (the rod) is physically touches the other uncharged, object (the sphere) The same type of charge is CONDUCTED from the rod to the sphere Charging by Conduction - - - - -- -- - - - - - - -- - - - -- -- -- -- -- - - -- Charging by Induction • Induced charge - NO physical contact between charged & uncharged object • OPPOSITE charge is INDUCED Temporary charge Induction - + - - - - - - - + - - - + - + + - + - ELECTRICALLY POLARIZED + - - - - - - - - + + + - - + + - - Permanent charge Induction + - - - - - - - - - + - + - + + - + - GROUNDING + - - - - - - - - + + + + + Another way to Induce a charge + - - - + - + + + + ++ + + + + ++ + - + - - + Net Charge of Zero + - - --- -- Question #3 An alpha particle with two positive charges and a less-massive electron with a single negative charge are attracted to each other.

As the particles get closer to each other, each experiences an increase in: a) b) c) d) e) force speed acceleration All of these None of these Answer #5: (d) ALL As the particles get closer, the FORCE and thus the ACCELERATION and also the SPEED Electrical Field Gravitational Field - A force field that exists around any object with mass – Interacts with mass Electric field - A force field that exists around a charged object – – Interacts with charges How do we know it exists? If another charged object enters this electric field, the field exerts a force on the second charged object direction of movement determines charge of the field Visualizing an Electric Field Michael Faraday developed the concept of drawing Electric Field Lines – – – Vector quantity Proximity of field lines indicates field strength Arrows indicate direction of field Direction indicates the charge – – Out of positive Into negative Electric Field Lines Point Charge – Field lines radiate equally in all directions – Radiate out on positive Proximity to each other indicates field strength + Negative Point Charge – Lines point inward Towards the charge - Electric Field Line Patterns Electric dipole consists of two equal and opposite charges – Add field lines – Connected field lines indicates opposite charge Matching numbers of field lines indicates similar charge values The high density of lines between the charges indicates the strong electric field in this region + - Electric Field Lines Electric Field Line Patterns Two equal but like point charges Zoomed out (far away) – the field would be appear to be one charge Zoom in (close-up) No connections indicate like charges; (repulsion) Low density of field lines between the charges indicates a weak field in region “C” Electric Field Lines Electric Field Patterns Unequal and unlike charges Note that two lines leave the +2q charge for each line that terminates on -q Electric Field Lines, cont.
