outline • Electrostatics Is Gauss’ Law • Equilibrium In Electrostatic Field • Equilibrium With Conductors • Stability Of Atoms • The Field Of A Line Charge • A Sheet Of Charge;2 Sheets • A Sphere Of Charge ;A Spherical Shell
There is NO points of stable equilibrium in any electrostatic field. Except right on top of another charge!
If were a position of stable equilibrium for a positive charge , the electric field everywhere in the neighborhood would point toward .
ButA charge can be in equilibrium if there are mechanical constraints.
conductorsCan a system of charged conductors produce a field that will have a stable equilibrium point for a point charge?
The Thompson model of an atom(18 December 1856 – 30 August 1940)
The Rutherford model of an atom 30 August 1871 – 19 October 1937
Thompson’s static model had to be abandoned. Rutherford and Bohr then suggested that the equilibrium might be dynamic ,with the electrons revolving in orbits.
2 charged sheets E(outside ) = 0
The validity of Gauss ’ law depends upon the inverse square law of Coulomb.
How shall we observe the field inside a charged sphere? Benjamin noticed that the field inside a conducting sphere is 0 ! Benjamin Franklin (January 17, 1706 – April 17, 1790)
The fields of a conductor • The electric field just outside the surface of a conductor Is proportional to the local Surface density of charge.

Chapter 6 May 11, 1918 – February 15, 1988 • The Electric Field in various circumstances
Outline Equations of the electrostatic potential The electric dipole Remarks on vector equations The dipole potential as a gradient The dipole approximation for an arbitrary distribution The fields of charged conductors The method of images A point charge near a conducting plane A point charge near a conducting sphere Condensers; parallel plates High-voltage breakdown The field emission microscope
Part 1Equation of the electrostatic potential • The whole mathematical problem is the solution of :
In an insulator the electrons can not move very far . they are pulled back bythe attraction of the nucleus . there is a tiny separation of its + and – charges. And it becomes amicroscopic dipole
Water molecule The hydrogen atom s have slightly less Than their share of the electron cloud ; The Oxygen ,slightly more.
In dipole potential if “d” is much more than “z”, we can write:
Dipole moment of 2 charges: Dipolepotential:
We wrote the equations in vector form so that they no longer depend on any coordinate system.
Part 4 = is the potential of a unit point charge.
Two uniformly charged spheres , superposed with a slight displacement , are equivalent to a non uniform distribution of surface charge.
We need a more accurate expression for rthat is a dipole potential
The electric field near a sharp point on a conductor is very high
