BW • Draw the distribution of charges of an electroscope when it is charged by bringing a glass rod that was rubbed against silk near its probe.
BellWork • If two charges of +1.6x10-19 C are separated by a distance of 2 meters, what is the electrostatic force between them? Is it attractive or repulsive? +1.6x10-19 C +1.6x10-19C 2 meters
BW • What charge does the dome of a van de Graff generator have?
Electric Fields • Electric Field – the region around a charged particle through which a force is exerted on another object.
Electric field lines • Imaginary line along which a positive test charge would move In other words, the direction of an electric field is direction of the force on a stationary positive charge located any point on the field line (tangent to the line for a curved field line) Positively Charged Sphere +Q

The force on a test charge per unit charge E = electric field strength (N/C) Fe = electrostatic force (N) q = electric charge (C) Electric Field Strength • The electric field strength is directly proportional to the electrostatic force. • If E increases, then Fe increases. If E decreases, then Fe decreases. How does this relate to distance?
Example • What is the magnitude of the electric field strength at a point in a field where an electron experiences a 1.0 N force?
If a proton is found in an electric field with a strength of 10 N/C, what is the electrostatic force that the proton experiences?
What are the magnitude and direction of the electric field 1.5 m away from a positive charge of 2.1*10-9 C?
From the diagram of A and B above, rA is 0.0005 m and rB is 0.0003 m. What is the force acting on q at A and B, if the charge of q is 1.2 * 10-11 C and the charge of Q is 1.5 * 10-11 C? For situation A and B above, calculate the electric field for the charge Q passing into charge q’s electric field.
CONDUCTING SPHERE • On the surface, charge is distributed uniformly (evenly). • Electric field lines are normal (perpendicular) to the surface. • Electric field strength varies with the square of the distance, just as a point charge. Hollow Sphere The electric field stength inside a hollow, charged conducting sphere is zero
