Electrostatics And Electricity Flashcards
1
Q
State Coulomb’s law
A
The magnitude of the electrostatic force exterted by one point charge on another point charge is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of the charges and inversely proportional to the square distance between them.
2
Q
What is an electric field?
A
A region of spaceub which an electric charge experiences a force.
3
Q
State ohm’s law
A
The potential difference across a conductor is directly proportional to the current in the conductor at constant temperature
