Electric ForcesElectric ForcesPhysics AStatic #3
Learning Targets0I can attribute the change in the electric force between
charged objects with the changes in the distance between them and/or the magnitude of the charges.
0I can calculate the electric force between two charged objects when given the charges of the objects and the distance between them.
0I can explain why acquiring a large excess static charge affects your hair.
Force as a Vector Quantity0The electrical force is expressed using the unit Newton. 0Being a force, the strength of the electrical interaction
is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction. 0The direction of the electrical force is dependent upon
whether the charged objects are charged with like charge or opposite charge.
Force as a Vector Quantity0Electrical force has a magnitude or strength. 0Electric force can be altered by changing three
variables. 0First, the quantity of charge on one of the objects
will affect the strength of the repulsive force. 0The more charged a balloon is, the greater the repulsive
force.
Force as a Vector Quantity0Second, the quantity of charge on the second object
will affect the strength of the force. 0Finally, the distance between the two objects will
have a significant and noticeable effect upon the repulsive force. 0The electrical force is strongest when the objects are closest
together. 0The magnitude of the force and the distance between the two
objects is said to be inversely related.
Coulomb’s Law Equation0Coulomb'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.
0The symbol k is a proportionality constant known as the Coulomb's law constant.
0The value is approximately 9.0 x 109 N • m2 / C2.
F =kqaqbd2
Coulomb’s Law Equation0The Coulomb's law equation provides an accurate
description of the force between two point charges.
0The symbols q1 and q2 represent the quantities of charge on the two interacting objects. 0Since an object can be charged positively or
negatively, these quantities are often expressed as "+" or "-" values.
0DO NOT USE THE “+” OR “-” VALUES IN THE EQUATION!

Comparing Electrical and Gravitational Forces
0Electrical force and gravitational force are the two non-contact forces.

Determine the electrical force of attraction between two balloons that are charged with the opposite type of charge but the same quantity of charge. The charge on the balloons is 6.0 x 10-7 C and they are separated by a distance of 0.50 m.
Joann has rubbed a balloon with wool to give it a charge of -1.0 x 10-6 C. She then acquires a plastic golf tube with a charge of +4.0 x 10-6 C localized at a given position. She holds the location of charge on the plastic golf tube a distance of 50.0 cm above the balloon. Determine the electrical force of attraction between the golf tube and the balloon.

At what distance of separation must two 1.00-microCoulomb charges be positioned in order for the repulsive force between them to be equivalent to the weight (on Earth) of a 1.00-kg mass?
Cause & Effect Relationships0Careful observation and measurement might
indicate that a pattern exists in which an increase in one variable always causes another measurable quantity to increase. 0This type of cause-effect relationship is described as
being a direct relationship. 0In electrostatics, the electrical force between two
charged objects is directly related to the magnitude of charge of the two objects.
0Increasing the charge of the objects increases the force of attraction or repulsion between the objects.
Cause & Effect Relationships0Observation might also indicate that an increase
in one variable always causes another measurable quantity to decrease. 0This type of cause-effect relationship is described as
being an inverse relationship.0In electrostatics, the electrical force between two
charged objects is inversely related to the distance of separation between the two objects.
0Increasing the separation distance between objects decreases the force of attraction or repulsion between the objects.
Cause & Effect Relationships0Electric force is very sensitive to distance.0The pattern between electrostatic force and distance
can be further characterized as an inverse square relationship. 0The factor by which the electrostatic force is changed is
the inverse of the square of the factor by which the separation distance is changed.
0 If the separation distance is doubled, then the electrostatic force is decreased by a factor of four (22).
0 If the separation distance is tripled, then the electrostatic force is decreased by a factor of nine.
