Lesson 3: Electric Force • Charge Interactions Revisited • Coulomb's Law • Inverse Square Law • Newton's Laws and the Electrical Force
Objectives • Calculate electric force using Coulomb’s law. • Compare electric force with gravitational force. • Apply the superposition principle to find the resultant force on a charge and to find the position at which the net force on a charge is zero.
The two fundamental charge interactions are: oppositely charged objects attract like charged objects repel. These mutual interactions resulted in an electrical force between the two charged objects. Charge Interactions are Forces A charged PVC pipe and a paper bit interact. The electrical force on the paper bit from PVC pipe balances the weight on the paper bit. The paper remains in equilibrium.
Electric force is a non-contact force • The electrical force is a non-contact force - it exists despite the fact that the interacting objects are not in physical contact with each other. Free body diagrams for objects A and B shown that there are three forces on each of the two objects. Both Felect and Fgrav are non-contact forces. Two like-charged objects exert equal and opposite repulsive electrical force on each other without contact with each other.
Force as a Vector Quantity vector quantity • Being a force, the strength of the electrical interaction is a __________________ which has both magnitude and direction. • The best way to determine the direction of it is to apply the fundamental rules of charge interaction • opposites ____________. • likes ____________. attract repel
example • An electron is located 1.0 meter from a +2.0-coulomb charge, as shown in the diagram. The electrostatic force acting on the electron is directed toward point • A • B • C • D A D B C
example • Two plastic rods, A and B, each possess a net negative charge of 1.0 × 10-3 coulomb. The rods and a positively charged sphere are positioned as shown in the diagram. Which vector below best represents the resultant electrostatic force on the sphere? c a b d
Coulomb's Law • The interaction between charged objects is a non-contact force that acts over some distance of separation. The force between two charged objects depends on three variables: • The ______________on object 1, • The ______________ on object 2, • The _________________ between them. charge charge distance q2 q1 r • kis a proportionality constant known as the Coulomb's law constant. k = 8.99 x 109 N • m2 / C2. • F: force between two charges, (in Newtons)
Coulomb's law states that the electrical force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of the quantity of charge on the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two objects. • The force value is positive (repulsive) when q1 and q2 are of like charge - either both "+" or both "-". • The force value is negative (attractive) when q1 and q2 are of opposite charge - one is "+" and the other is "-".
Example • Suppose that two point charges, each with a charge of +1.00 Coulomb are separated by a distance of 1.00 meter. Determine the magnitude of the electrical force of repulsion between them. Given: q1 = 1.00 C q2 = 1.00 C r = 1.00 m Find: Fe =? Fe = k • q1 • q2 / d2 Fe = (8.99 x 109 N•m2/C2) • (1.00 C) • (1.00 C) / (1.00 m)2 Fe = 9.0 x 109 N This is an incredibly large force which compares in magnitude to the weight of more than 2000 jetliners. Objects simply do not acquire charges on the order of 1.00 Coulomb. In fact, Charge is often expressed in units of microCoulomb (µC) and nanoCoulomb (nC). 1 C = 106μC 1 C = 109 nC
r2 • Fe = k • q1 • q2 r2 = k • q1 • q2 / Fe r = √(k • q1 • q2 / Fe r = +1.99 m Example • Two balloons with charges of +3.37 µC and -8.21 µC attract each other with a force of 0.0626 Newtons. Determine the separation distance between the two balloons. Given: Find: d = ? q1 = +3.37 µC = +3.37 x 10-6 C q2 = -8.21 µC = -8.21 x 10-6 C Fe = -0.0626 N (negative sign indicate attractive force)
Comparing Electrical and Gravitational Forces • Both electrical force and gravitational force are non-contact forces. k = 8.99 x 109 N·m2/C2 G = 6.67 x 10-11 N·m2/kg2 • The similarities: • Both equations have same form. • Both equations show an inverse square relationship between force and separation distance. • both equations show that the force is proportional to the product of the quantity that causes the force.
k = 8.99 x 109 N·m2/C2 G = 6.67 x 10-11 N·m2/kg2 • The difference: • Coulomb's law constant (k) is significantly greater than Newton's universal gravitation constant (G). Subsequently the force between charges – electric force - are significantly stronger than the force between masses – gravitational force. • Gravitational forces are only attractive; electrical forces can be either attractive or repulsive.
example • The diagram below shows two identical metal spheres, A and B, separated by distance d. Each sphere has mass m and possesses charge q. • Which diagram best represents the electrostatic force Fe and the gravitational force Fg acting on sphere B due to sphere A? A B C D
example • Two protons are located one meter apart. Compared to the gravitational force of attraction between the two protons, the electrostatic force between the protons is • stronger and repulsive • weaker and repulsive • stronger and attractive • weaker and attractive
Coulomb’s Law – force and distance is inverse squared F • That is, the factor by which the electrostatic force is changed is the inverse of the squareof the factor by which the separation distance is changed. • If the separation distance is doubled (increased by a factor of 2), then the electrostatic force is decreased by a factor of four (22) • If the separation distance is tripled (increased by a factor of 3), then the electrostatic force is decreased by a factor of nine (32). d
example • Two charges that are 2 meters apart repel each other with a force of 2x10-5 newton. If the distance between the charges is decreased to 1 meter, the force of repulsion will be • 1 x 10-5 N • 5 x 10-6 N • 8 x10-5 N • 4 x 10-5 N
Coulomb’s law – force and charge has direct relationship • Electrostatic force is directly proportional to the charge of each object. So if the charge of one object is doubled, then the force will become two times greater. If the charge of each of the object is doubled, then the force will become four times greater.
example • A repulsive electrostatic force of magnitude F exists between two metal spheres having identical charge q. The distance between their two centers is r. Which combination of changes would produce no change in the electrostatic force between the two spheres? • doubling q on one sphere while doubling r • doubling q on both spheres while doubling r • doubling q on one sphere while halving r • doubling q on both spheres while halving r

Resultant force • Resultant force is the vector sum of the individual forces on that charge. Fnet FB + + FA A + B
Newton's Laws and the Electrical Force • Electric force, like any force, is analyzed by Newton's laws of motion. The analysis usually begins with the construction of a free-body diagram. The magnitudes of the forces are then added as vectors in order to determine the resultant sum, also known as the net force. The net force can then be used to determine the acceleration of the object. • In some instances, the goal of the analysis is not to determine the acceleration of the object. Instead, the free-body diagram is used to determine the spatial separation or charge of two objects that are at static equilibrium. In this case, the free-body diagram is combined with an understanding of vector principles in order to determine some unknown quantity.
example • A 0.90x10-4 kg balloon with a charge of -7.5 x 10-10 C is located a distance of 0.12 m above a plastic golf tube which has a charge of -8.3 x 10-10 C.
