Q

basic properties of electric charges and explain

A

1 addition of charges
2 conservation of charges:
total charge in isolated system remains constant and conserved, charge can neither be created nor be destroyed
3 quantisation of charges:
the charge on the body isalways equal to the integral multiple of basic uintof charge
Q = +-ne (e= 10-19 x 1.6)

Q

primciple of super position

A

The principle of superposition states that if a system contains a number of interacting charges, then the net force on any one charge due to the other charges is the vector sum of all the forces exerted on it by all the other charges. The individual forces are unaffected due to the presence of other charges.
