Coulombs Law
ELECTROSTATICS
The branch of physics dealing with charges at rest
Under electrostatic condition, the electric field inside the metallic conductor remains zero.
Application in instruments like microphones, cathode ray tube, capacitors, van de Graaff
generator, photocopier, electrostatic shielder etc.
CHARGE
Benzamin franklin and Milikan
Fundamental property exhibited due to deficiency or sufficiency of electrons
Two types of charges : Positive and negative charge
Unlike charge attract one another and like charges repel
Exhibit properties like Quantization, superposition, invariance, conservation, induction etc
Negatively charged bodies : electron sufficient & slightly mass sufficient also

A point charge q is situated at a distance d from one end of a thin non conducting rod of length
L having a charge Q (uniformly distributed along its length) as shown in figure. Find the
magnitude of electric force between the two.
Solution:
Consider an element of rod, of length d x, at a distance x from the point charge q as shown in
figure. Treating the element as a point charge, the force between q and charge element will be as:

A thin wire ring of radius R has an electric charge q. What will be the charge of the force
stretching the wire if a point charge q0 is placed at the rings centre?
Solution:
When the wire is given charge q, it comes in tension, called hoop tension. When another charge
q0 is placed at the centre of the ring, the tension in the wire increases to keep this segment into
equilibrium again.
Consider an elementary strip subtending angle d at its centre.

All vectorial technique to be applied for calculation of net force.
For three dimensional distribution of charges, the coulombs law in vectorial form should be
used.

Since three equal forces are acting at a point making angle of 1200, net resultant force is zero.
Concept : The net force acting on the charge kept at centre of regular polygon is zero due to
charges kept at the vertices provided they are of same magnitude & sign.

OBJECTIVE 9
Five point charges, each of value +q coulomb, are placed on five vertices of a regular hexagon of
side Lm. The magnitude of the force on the point charge of q coulomb placed at the centre of

Solution :
If there would have been charge at the left vertices also, net force at the centre will be zero.
The coulombian force due to five charge should balance the coulombian force exerted by the
charge dept at left vertices. Force due to all charges should be along OA.
