Electric fields Flashcards
1
Q
Electric field
A
the region in space where charged particles will feel a force
2
Q
Electric field
A
Force per unit charge
3
Q
Coulombs Law
A
The magnitude of the force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges
The size of the force is inversely proportional to separation squared (inverse square)
4
Q
Permittivity of free space
A
constant related to the size of the force between electrical charges in free space
