Electrostatics

Question 1

Positively charged

Answer 1

Electrons are removed making the object electron deficient

Question 2

Negatively charged

Answer 2

Electrons are added giving the object an excess of electrons

Question 3

Electrostatic force

Answer 3

The force exerted by static charges on each other

Question 5

Elementary change

Answer 5

The amount of charge carried by One Electron

Question 6

Equations

Answer 6

Qnew = q1+q2/ 2

🔺Q = qfinal-qinitial

Q=ne

Question 7

Principle of conservation of charge

Answer 7

The net change of an isolated system remains constant during any physical change

Question 8

Coulomb’s law

Answer 8

Two point charges in free space or air exert forces on each other. The force
is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square
of the distance between the charges.

Question 9

Electrical field

Answer 9

A region of space in which an electrical charge experiences a force. The
direction of the electrical field at a point is the direction that a positive test charge would
move when placed at that point.

Question 10

Electric field strength

Answer 10

The force per unit positive charge.
