Opposite charges attract. Charles Augustine de Coulomb (1736-1806). Coulomb’s Law: ( Magnitude of force ) (Note that in Newton’s law of gravitation, G, which plays a role similar to K, has the valueG = 6.67 ′ 10-11 N m2/kg2.) Coulomb’s Law applies only to point charges. (This is particularly important because charge are free to move around on conductors.) Strictly speaking, Coulomb’s Law applies only to electrostatics (non-moving charges). (However, it is usually OK provided vc). Electrostatic forces (vectors!) can be superposed. Linear superposition !!!! Two +10 nC charged particles are 2 cm apart on the x axis. (1) What is the net force on a +1.0 nC particle midway between them? (2) What is the net force if the charged particle on the right is replaced by a -10 nC charge? 9 -9 Two positively charged particles q1 and q2=3q1 are placed 10. 0 cm apart. Where (other than infinity) could another charge q3 be placed so as to experience no net force? Need force vectors to be co-linear, so location must be on x axis. Need force vectors to be in opposite directions, so location
