Unit 10 Concept Map Electricity and Magnetism Static ElectricityCurrent ElectricityMagnetism & Electromagnetism
3
The Electrical Charge Carrier The Electron –Negatively charged –9.11x10 -31 kg The Proton –Positively charged –1.67x10 -27 kg Why is the electron principally responsible in determining electric charge?
4
Charge Basics Opposite charges attract Like charges repel Electrons and protons have equal and opposite charges Lowest possible charge is that of electron or proton (no fractional charges…yet)
5
Benjamin Franklin 1706-1790 Famous kite experiment First to give charges the names positive and negative First to realize Law of Conservation of Charge Invented the lightning rod
6
The SI Unit of Charge The Coulomb (C) 6.25x10 18 electrons (or protons) are needed to make one Coulomb The charge on one single electron/proton 1.6x10 -19 C See reference table for values
7
Charles-Augustin de Coulomb 1736-1806
8
Questions? How does an object become negatively charged? How does an object become positively charged? What is the net charge in Coulombs of 5 electrons? What is the number of protons that make up a charge of 10 nanoCoulombs?
9
Law of Conservation of Charge Electric charge can neither be created nor destroyed -5 -11 -8
10
Transferring Charge
11
The Electroscope A device used to detect electric charge
12
Charging by Induction Isolating charge without physical contact between objects Once charged rod is removed, the electroscope stays neutrally charged
13
Charging by Conduction Isolating electric charge by physical contact Once rod is removed, the electroscope remains charged
14
Permanently Charging by Induction
15
Coulomb’s Law There exists an electrostatic force between charged objects that is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charges and indirectly proportional to the square of the distance between them. There exists an electrostatic force between charged objects that is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charges and indirectly proportional to the square of the distance between them. This is another Inverse-Square law This is another Inverse-Square law This force could be attractive or repulsive This force could be attractive or repulsive
16
Coulomb’s Law F 21 indicates force on q 1 due to q 2 F 12 indicates force on q 2 due to q 1
17
Coulomb’s Law
18
Coulomb’s Constant
19
Let’s Try a Problem F 21 indicates force on q 1 due to q 2
20
The Van de Graaff Generator Generates large static charges that build up on dome Some generators can charge to thousands of volts They are generally safe, but caution should be heeded
22
Electric Fields An electric field is an invisible force field that affects electric charges The field is defined based on how it affects a positive test-charge All charged objects are assumed to have an electric field associated with them
23
Electric Field Mapping
24
Electric Field Around a Positively Charged Object
25
Electric Field Around Charged Pairs
26
Electric Field of a Set of Parallel Plates
27
Electric Field Mapping Rules E-Field lines must never touch or cross themselves or other field lines E-Field lines run out of a positive charge and into a negative charge E-Field lines must intersect charged object at right angle (90 o ) Number and density of lines indicate field strength or intensity
28
Electric Field Intensity Units of electric field intensity are Newtons per Coulomb q represents charge on test-charge
29
Electric Field Equation for Point Charges Capital Q indicates charge on the object
30
Electric Potential Energy Electric potential energy is the energy stored within an electric field The work done in moving a charge within an electric field is equal to the potential energy stored The kinetic energy gained by a charged particle within an electric field is equal to the potential energy lost What are the units for EPE?
32
Work-Energy Theorem Review
33
Electric Potential Electric potential is the ratio of the work done on a charged particle within an electric field divided by the particle’s charge Units are Joules per Coulomb Other terms used for electric potential are electric potential difference and voltage
34
Electric Potential Units of Electric Potential are Joules per Coulomb or Volts

E & M Part 2 Current Electricity Current Resistance Voltage Ohm’s Law Power Circuits –Series –Parallel
44
Electric Current Time rate of flow of electric charge I represents electric current Units of current are Coulombs per second
45
Electrical Resistance The opposition to steady electric current flow The unit of resistance is the Ohm ( Similar to friction there is no such thing as zero resistance Carbon Resistor
46
Resistance in Electrical Conductors i.e. wires Resistance depends on: –Length of wire –Thickness of wire –Type of material used (metal) –Temperature –How do you think each one of these parameters effects resistance?
47
Resistance in Electrical Conductors R is resistance L is wire length A is cross-sectional area is resistivity of conductor
