Electrostatics & Fields & Potential
21
Electrostatistics: Electricity at rest
Electric: Forces from particles in atoms
Charge: Fundamental electrical property that causes mutual attractions or repulsions
Conservation: The net electric charge is neither created nor destroyed but transferred from one material to another
Coulomb: SI unit of charge (Symbol C = 6.24 x 10^18 electrons)
Conductor: Material through which electric charge can flow (ie metals).
Insulator: Material that is a poor conductor of electricity.
Semiconductor: Material that can behave as a conductor or as an insulator of electricity.
Induced: Electric Charge redistributed on an object due to the presence of a charged object nearby
Induction: The charging of an object without direct contact
Grounding: Allowing charges to move freely along a connection between a conductor and the ground.
Polarized: Atom or molecule with charges aligned so one side is more positive or negative than the opposite side.
Field: surrounds an electric charge or group of charges
Magnitude: Measure by its effect on charges located in the field
Direction: Direction of the force that would be on a positive test charge if placed at that point
Lines: Used to represent an electric field (farther apart means weaker)
Zero: Electric field when the charge is NOT moving
Potential: Electric potential energy “per” charge = Electric potential energy / charge
Volt: SI Unit or electric potential (Symbol V) = 1 Joule / 1 Coulomb
Voltage: Electric Potential measured in Volts
Capacitor: Device used to store a charge in a circuit
