Electric Charge and Electric Field

Forces of NatureAll interactions in the entire universe (!) can be described by four forces

You’ve studied only the “gravitational”force

This semester, we’ll do “electricity and magnetism”

Amazingly the two turn out to be part of the same force - the “electromagnetic” force

We’ll hint at a third force soon, the last one is covered in Modern Physics class

Supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way (Sagittarius A)

Review of the Gravitational ForceObjects have an intrinsic property called “mass”

An object’s mass can be 0 (light - a photon)Two objects with mass attract each other, the force is

This works for any two objects: “Universal gravitation” is a vector force along line connecting masses - sign force is attractive (always!)

is a measure of strength of gravitational force (“coupling constant”)

is small gravity is very weak

Force goes like weaker for masses that are further apart

Force proportional to mass more mass means stronger force

F = −Gm1m2

Electric ChargeObjects have another intrinsic property called “charge”

Greeks learned this by rubbing amber (fossilized tree resin)

Greek word for amber = “elektron”

Do “Balloons” Demo

Amber from wikipedia

Electric ChargeTwo kinds of charges

Called positive (+) and negative (-)By convention (due to Benjamin Franklin)

Objects with charge feel a forceLike charges repel, opposites attract

This is known from experiment/observation

Objects can also be charge neutralMost matter is net charge neutral

Neutral matter contains the same amount of positive and negative charges

Why is most matter neutral?

Benjamin Franklin

1706-1790

Matter as ChargesMatter is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons

The unit of charge is Coulombs:

The charge of a proton is

Note,

Memorize this!

q = e

q = 0

q = −e

[q] = Coulombs

e = 1.60217653(14)× 10−19Ce � 1.6× 10−19C

melectron � mprotonmelectron

mproton� 1

1836

Make-up of AtomsSince ,they behave very differently!

When the charges are “free,”electrons move much easier than protons

They feel the same force(Newton’s Third Law pairs),but their acceleration is different!

Inside atoms, we think of the lighter electrons “orbiting” protons like the Earth orbits the Sun

This will change when we learn quantum mechanics (Modern Physics)

Protons and neutrons reside in the nucleus of the atom

motion

How Do We Know?Electrons discovered in 1897 by Thomson

It was thought that the positive chargeswere distributed evenly throughout the matter (Thomson’s “plum pudding” model)

Rutherford experiment 1907His assistant (Geiger) developed a counter of alpha particlesAlpha particles (helium nuclei, discovered in 1895) shot into a foil made of gold, they found more particles bounced backwards than expected

Conclusion - Almost all the mass is localized in small regionsIf an atom was the size of a football stadium, the nucleus would be basketballs at the 50-yard line and the electrons would be in the highest seatsMost of what makes up matter (your desk, your fingers, ...) is almost entirely empty space!

Atoms - Neutrals and Ions

Neutral matter is neutral not because it is made up of uncharged particles, but because it is made up of

equal numbers of positive and negative charges.

The Electric ForceHow would you determine the electric force between charges?

Same way Cavendish did for gravitation in 1787- torsional balance!Coulomb measured the electrostatic force(for charges at rest) in 1784.

Cavendish already did it, but didn’t publish!

Charles-Augustinde Coulomb1736-1806

Henry Cavendish1731-1810

Coulomb’s Law• The result (Coulomb’s Law) is astounding!

• Looks just like gravitational force!• Again an “inverse square law”• Mass m => Charge q• Gravitational constant G =>

Coulomb’s constant k(electrostatic coupling constant)

• --------

F =kq1q2r2

Measure with voltmeter and plasma ball?

Examples of electrical force calculated—IA fascinating comparison of gravitational force to electrostatic force is shown in Example 21.1 and Figure 21.11.

Regard Problem-Solving Strategy 21.1.

See also Example 21.2 and Figure 21.12.

Examples of electrical force calculated—IIConsider Example 21.3 and Figure 21.13.

See also Example 21.4 and Figure 21.14.

Movement of charges—charging by conduction• Materials that allow

easy passage of charge are called conductors. Materials that resist electronic flow are called insulators. The motion of electrons through conducts and about insulators allows us to observe “opposite charges attract” and “like charges repel.”

Electrons move freely and charges may be induced• Take a child’s toy, a rubber balloon. If you rub the balloon

vigorously on a fuzzy sweater then bring the balloon slowly toward a painted concrete or plaster wall, the balloon will stick to the wall and remain for some time. The electrostatic force between static electrons and the induced positive charge in the wall attract more strongly than the weight of the balloon.

Static electricity about an insulator can shift• The motion of static charges about a plastic comb and light bits

of paper can cause attractive forces strong enough to overcomethe weight of the paper.

Electric fields may be mapped by force on a test charge

If one measured the force on a test charge at all points relative to another charge or charges, an electric field may be mapped.

This experiment is often done in one’s mind (called a “gedanken experiment”).

Electric fields I—the point chargeFields of force may be sketched for different arrangements of charge.Consider Example 21.6 and Figure 21.19.

Electric fields II—charges in motion within a fieldConsider Example 21.7.

in the introduction, the dipole force of water is vital to chemistry and biology.
