Electrostatics is the study of the effects of stationary
charges on each other in their surroundings.
Charges are created by the transfer of electrons to or from
one body to another. (Protons are NEVER transferred.)
Objects with equal numbers of protons and
electrons are neutral. They have no net charge.
Objects with more electrons than
protons are charged negatively
Objects with less electrons than
protons are charged positively.

Fg = gravity force between
m1 and m2 separated by
a distance r
G is the Universal
Gravitational Constant
The weight of an object
is its mass times g’, the
gravity value at location r
Fe = electrostatic force
Between m1 and m2
separated by a distance r
k is Coulomb’s
Constant
Coulomb’s Law is an inverse square law
similar to the Law of Gravitation
It is dissimilar in that electrostatic forces can be attraction or
repulsion. Gravity is attraction only.
Electrostatic force is strong, gravity is very weak.
Gravity is classified as a weak force because huge
amounts of mass are required to create a reasonably
large force.
Note the very small value of the force constant.
Electric forces is classified as a strong force because
small charge quantities can to create large forces.
Note the very large value of the force constant
Electric charges are detected by the presence of an electric field (E).
Recall that a gravity field can be detected by its influence
(attractive force) on a mass (often called a test mass).
Electric fields are detected by their influence (attractive or
repulsive forces) on a charge (often called a test charge).
Electrically charged bodies can be created by physically rubbing
electrons off one object on to another. For example, rubbing a
rubber rod with fur will transfer electrons from the fur to the rod
which becomes negatively charged (it has extra electrons).
Rubbing a glass rod with silk will transfer electrons from the rod to
the silk. The rod is charged positively (it has missing electrons).

Recall that a gravity field (g) is measured by dividing the force
acting on it (its weight(w) in Newtons ) by the mass quantity (m)
in kilograms
g in N / Kg
An electric field (E) is measured by dividing the force
acting on it (in Newtons ) by the charge quantity (q) in
coulombs (C ).

(3) E = kq1 q2 / r2 q2 ( by substitution)
E = kq / r2
q = point charge in coulombs
k = coulomb’s constant
r= distance from charge in

E = electric field strength

Electrical Potential is defined as the work required to move a
charge over a distance in an electric field.
Electrical potential is measured in volts.
One volt equals one joule (work) divided by charge (coulombs)
In a uniform electric field (a field between two parallel charged
metal plates) , potential (V) equals work (W) divided by charge (q).
Therefore, since work equal force times distance and force equals
the electric field strength (N/C) times charge in coulombs (C) ,
potential equals electric field times distance the charge moves.
V = W / q = (F x d) / q = (F / q) x d = E x d
V (volts) = E ( N/C) x d (m)

V = Work (Joules) / Charge (coul)
In an electric field issued from a point charge the field varies
inversely with the square of the distance from the charge,
therefore the work required to move the charge is continuously
changing.
This is similar to the varying gravity field surrounding a mass.
The work required to move a mass in that field also
continuously changing.
To find the work required to move the charge in a varying
field we must integrate the force times distance equation
using calculus.
The following frames show the use of calculus to find work
form force versus distance relationships. If your course
does not require calculus, skip these frames

Finding Area Under Curves Mathematically
• Areas under force versus distance graphs (work)
can be found mathematically. The process
requires that the equation for the graph be
known and integral calculus be used.
• Recall that integration is also referred to as
finding the antiderivative of a function.
• The next slide reviews the steps in finding the
integral of the basic function, y = kxn.
INTEGRATION – THE ANTIDERIVATIVE
INTEGRATION IS THE REVERSE PROCESS OF
FINDING THE DERIVATIVE. IT CAN ALSO BE USED
TO FIND THE AREA UNDER A CURVE.

Integration can be used to find area under a curve between
two points. Also, if the original equation is a derivate, then
the equation from which the derivate came can be determined.
APPLYING THE INTEGRAL FORMULA
Find the area between x = 2 and x = 5 for the equation y = 5X3.
First find the integral of the equation as shown on the previous
frame. The integral was found to be 5/4 X4 + C.
The values 5 and 2 are
called the limits.
each of the limits is
placed in the integrated
equation and the results
of each calculation are
subtracted (lower limit
from upper limit)

by the charge quantity of the point charge we get a
relationship which describes absolute potential

VAbsolute = ( - k q1 q2 / r ) / q2

Capacitors are electrical devices used to store electrical energy.
They are not to be confused with batteries which create
electrical energy via chemical reaction.
The structure of a capacitor is shown on the next slide.
Essentially, electrons are pumped onto one of the metal
plates shown and pushed off the other plate by the electric
field developed on the first plate. The electrons are pumped
be a battery, power supply or other voltage source.
Once the charge is isolated on the metal plates it represents
stored energy since when the capacitor is connected to an
electrical circuit, electrons will flow from the plate of high
electron concentration through the connecting device,
thus releasing energy and back to the plate of low electron
concentration until charge equilibrium is reached.

Although it may seem illogical, in
conventional current the + plate
has the excess electrons !
C (farads) = q (coul) / V (volts)
A Farad is a unit of capacitance
1 F = 1 coul / 1 volt
Large capacitor can hold more
charge at lower voltages and
can store more energy
CAPACITOR TRENDS
(1) Large capacitors can hold more charge and
larger amounts of energy than smaller ones.
(2) The closer the plates are together, the more
energy that can be stored since the electric field
between the plates becomes stronger.
(3) The larger the dielectric constant the less
the tendency of electrons to “jump the gap”
(short out) between the plates at higher
voltages and more energy can be stored.

Effectively, the capacitors in parallel
become one larger capacitor
C(total)
= C (1) + C (2) + C (3)
Since each individual capacitor is directly
connected to the voltage source
(battery) each bears the same voltage
The charge on each capicator is dependent
on its individual capacitance. (Plate

Capacitors in series have different characteristics than
Those connnected in parallel
(1) Since they are not all directly connnected to the
voltage source, the voltage on each varies according
to its individual capacitance. Larger ones have
lower voltage than smaller ones.
(2) Each capacitor, despite its size, has the same charge.
