, Electrostatics
(Electric Field & Potenial)
ELECTROSTATICS / FIELD
Electrostatics is a branch of physics which deals with charge at rest charge is the origin of electromagnetic
force. When charge is at rest then region around it called electric field while the region around the moving
charge called magnetic field.

PROPERTIES OF CHARGE :
1. For a given closed system the total charge remains conserved.
2. Charge is always quantised i.e. Q = ±nc ; n  I
Charge on any body is always in the integral multiple of one electronic charge (e = 1.6 × 10–19 coul).
3. Charge is relativistically invariant.

TYPES MATERIAL
There are three kinds of material on the basis of conductivity.
(a) Conductor : Having large number of mobile electrons. It is approximately 1021 electrons/c.c.
(b) Bad conductor : Having very small number of free electrons, it is approximately 107 electrons c.c
(c) Semi conductor : Conductivity lies between conductor and insulator. Number of free electrons is
approximately 104 electron/c.c.

COULOMB’S LAW :
When two point charges q1 and q2 are separated by a distance r then force of mutual intraction F is given by
F  q1q 2 when r = constant.

and F when q1q2 = constant

Îr is the relative permitivity which is the dimensionless qunatity that gives the factor by which force is
reduced compared to vaccum.
