Electrostatics Chapter 23
Week-1-2
What’s Happening• Clicker use will start on Friday
(maybe).• Today we begin the study of
charge with make-believe clickers.• There will NOTNOT be a quiz this week.• There WILLWILL be a quiz next Friday.• WebAssigns are now active.
Probable First Observation ElectricityElectricity
Idiot!
If lightening had actually traveled down the kite string, old Ben Franklin would have been toast!
Probably never happened, but good story!
A Quick Experiment
History
600 BC Thales of Miletos rubs amber (electron in
Greek) with cat fur and uses it to pick up feathers.
Important questions: Why was he doing this? Didn’t he have a job?? What happened to the skinned cat?
AmberMillion years ago large stands of forests in some parts of the world began to seep globs of sticky resin! This aromatic resin oozed down the sides of trees, as well as filling internal fissures, trapping debris, such as seeds, leaves, feathers and insects. As geologic time progressed the forests were buried and the resin hardened into a soft, warm, golden gem, known as amber. Amber is the fossilized resin of ancient trees which forms through a natural polymerization of the original organic compounds. Most of the world's amber is in the range of 30-90 million years old.

What’s Going On?
All of these effects involve rubbing two surfaces together.
Or pulling two surfaces apart. Something has “happened “to each of these
objects. These objects have a new PROPERTY
Other properties are mass, color We call this NEW PROPERTY CHARGE.
From whence this charge???

Same as before: Polarization
From WebAssign
Three are brought close to each other, two at a time. When objects A and B are brought together, they attract. When objects B and C are brought together, they repel. From this, we conclude which of the following? (Select all that apply.)
[_] Objects A and C possess charges of the same sign. [_] All three of the objects possess charges of the same sign. [_] One of the objects is neutral.[_] Objects A and C possess charges of opposite sign. [_] We need to perform additional tests to determine information about the charges on the object
Example
PITH BALLS
Another Example
Example - Tape
Effect of Charge
We have also observed that there must be TWO kinds of charge. Call these two types
positive (+) negative(-)
We “define” the charge that winds up on the rubber rod when rubbed by the dead cat to be NEGATIVE.
The charge on the glass rod or the dead cat is defined as POSITIVE.
What happens when two surfaces touch or rub?
Bonding!Bonding!
The Triboelectric Series
No! No!
When two of the following materials are rubbed together under ordinary circumstances, the top listed material becomes positively charged and the lower listed material becomes
negatively charged.
MORE POSITIVE rabbit's fur
glass mica nylon wool
cat's fur silk
paper cotton wood
acrylic cellophane tape
polystyrene polyethylene
rubber balloon saran wrap
MORE NEGATIVE
No! No!
Summary - Rubbings
What have we found?
There are TWO types of charge. Positive Negative
Like Charges Attract Un-Like charges repel The force between charges increases as they are
brought closer together. This charge separation results from chemical bonds
which are severe in the pocess.

Properties of a FORCE FIELD
It is a property of the position in space. There is a cause but that cause may not be
known. The force on an object is usually proportional
to some property of an object which is placed into the field.
Fields Imagine an object is placed at a particular point in
space. When placed there, the object experiences a force F. We may not know WHY there is a force on the object,
although we usually will. Suppose further that if we double some property of
the object (mass, charge, …) then the force is found to double as well.
Then the object is said to be in a force field. The strength of the field (field strength) is defined as
the ratio of the force to the property that we are dealing with.
Example – Gravitational Field.
Property is MASS (m). Force is mg. Field strength is defined
as Force/Property

Coulomb’s Law – Force between charges
The force between two charges is proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Three point charges are located at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in Figure P23.7. Calculate the resultant electric force on the 7.00-μC charge.
Two small beads having positive charges 3q and q are fixed at the opposite ends of a horizontal, insulating rod, extending from the origin to the point x = d. As shown in Figure P23.10, a third small charged bead is free to slide on the rod. At what position is the third bead in equilibrium? Can it be in stable equilibrium?

Mysterious Force
F
Electric Field
If a charge Q is in an electric field E then it will experience a force F.
The Electric Field is defined as the force per unit charge at the point.
Electric fields are caused by charges and consequently we can use Coulombs law to calculate it.
For multiple charges, add the fields as VECTORS.

Dare we project this??
Point Charge goes as 1/r2
Infinite line of charge goes as 1/r1
Could it be possible that the field of an infinite plane of charge could go as 1/r0? A constant??

Look at the “Field Lines”
What did we learn in this chapter??
We introduced the concept of the Electric FIELDFIELD. We may not know what causes the field. (The
evil Emperor Ming) If we know where all the charges are we can
CALCULATE E. E is a VECTOR. The equation for E is the same as for the force
on a charge from Coulomb’s Law but divided by the “q of the test charge”.
What else did we learn in this chapter? We introduced continuous distributions of
charge rather than individual discrete charges.
Instead of adding the individual charges we must INTEGRATE the (dq)s.
There are three kinds of continuously distributed charges.

(Note: I left off the unit vectors in the lastequation set, but be aware that they should
be there.)
To be remembered …
If the ELECTRIC FIELD at a point is E, then E=F/q (This is the definition!)
Using some advanced mathematics we can derive from this equation, the fact that:
