5. Maxwell’s Equations of Classical Electrodynamics

6. Electrostatics The study of electric forces when all charges are at rest. The study of electric forces when all charges are at rest. Every particle has a property called chargem. The charge is either positive, or negative, or zero. Every particle has a property called chargem. The charge is either positive, or negative, or zero. Charge is always conserved. Charge is always conserved. Measured on Coulombs. Measured on Coulombs.

7. Coulomb’s Law F1 = kqQ/r 2 F1 = kqQ/r 2 F1 = - F2 F1 = - F2 k = 1/4πε 0 k = 1/4πε 0 It is “sign sensitive”. It is “sign sensitive”. Very similar to gravitation. Very similar to gravitation. +Q +q F1 F2
