Interaction of Matter and Electromagnetic Fields What will you learn? aurora borealis Backpacking in Alaska • Sun spits out Charged Particles (Solar Wind) • Earth’s Magnetic Field extends out into space and collects charged solar wind. • Charged particles are concentrated at poles • Collisions of these high velocity charges with air makes the light of the aurora
Maxwell equations: Lorentz force: More Mathematically … The interactions between matter and Electric and Magnetic fields can be explained with just a few equations.
Point Charges • Two types: positive and negative • Like charges: repel • Opposite charges: attract • Charge is quantized in units of e • Millikan’s oil drop experiment (1910-1913) • Point charge: Size is small compared to the distance between it and other objects of interest • Electric charge is an intrinsic property of the fundamental particles that everything is made of
Charles-Augustin de Coulomb (1736 - 1806) Q1 Q2 F F The Coulomb Force Law "The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two point charges is directly proportional to the magnitudes of each charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges."

Structure of Atom Matter consists of atoms 1 cm3 : ~1024 atoms Nucleus: ~104 times smaller than electron cloud, ~104 times heavier than electron. 1Å=10-10m Example: nucleus of the iron atom Size: ~10–15 m, mass: ~10-25 kg Nucleus charge = +Ze, atom with Z electrons is neutral.
The Concept of Electric Field Accelerates at 9.8 m/s2 – why? Accelerates at 1011 m/s2 – why? There are many possible configurations of charges to produce the observed effect.
Electric Field There is something in space waiting for a charged particle to interact with it! This virtual force is called electric field. An electric field created by charge is present throughout space at all times, whether or not there is another charge around to feel its effect.
