SUMMARY
1. Electric Charge : Just as masses of two particles are responsible for the gravitational force,
charges are responsible for the electric force. Electric charge is an intrinsic property of a particle.
Charges are of two types : (1) Positive charges (2) Nagative charges.
The force acting between two like charges is repulsive and two unlike charges it is attractive
between .
2. Quantization of Electric Charge : The magnitude of all charges found in nature are an integral
multiple of a fundamental charge. Q  ne, where e is the fundamental unit of charge.
3. Conservation of Electric Charge : Irrespective of any process taking place, the algebraic sum
of electric charges in an electrically isolated system always remains constant.
4. Coulomb's Law : The electric force between two stationary point charges is directly propor-
tional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance
between them.

Fk 2 
r 40 r2
If q1 q2  0 then there is a repulsion between the two charges and for q 2 q2  0 , there is a attrac-
tion between the charges.
5. Equation for Force using Columb’s Law, when two charges are placed in a medium having
dielectric constant k.
(1) 
The electric force F experienced by a test charge (q0) due to a source charge (q) when
both are placed in a medium having dielectric constant k and separated by a dis-
tance r, is given by :
P F

F  2
ˆr (qo)
40 kr

Here ˆr is the unit vector directed from q to q0.
1 q1 q 2
The equation of coulomb's force may be written as follows : F  ˆr
 
(2)
40 k r2
(3) If the source charge and test charge are separated by a number of medium of thickness
d1 , d2 , d3 ............. having dielectric constants k1 , k 2 , k 3 ........... respectively, then the
electric force on charge q0 due to a charge q is given by
 1 qq0  1 qq0

 
 k i d2i 

In this equation ki is dielectric constant of medium which spreads through the distance di
along the line joining q and q0.

For example, see the figure below :
Here, the space between the charges q and q0 is filled with medium (1, 2, 3). The thickness of
medium 1 is d1 and its dielectric consant is k1 Similarly the thickness of medium 2 and 3 is d2 and
d3 of medium 3 and their dielectric constants are k2 and k3 respectively.
6. Conditions for Equilibrium in Various Cases :
Suppose three charges q1, q2 and q are situated on a straight line as shown below :
If q1 and q2 are like charges and q is of unlike charge then,
q1  q1 q 

Now, from above equations, it is clear that various equilibrium conditions can be as follows :

When electric charge is placed on the metallic conductor :

Since P  E , P  x Exe is called the electric susceptibility of the dielectric medium.

1  x  is called the permittivitty  of the dielectric medium. is called the relative

permittivity of that medium and it is also called the dielectric constant K.

D  0 E  P is called the electric displacement. Gauss Law in the presence of dielectric is

written as D ds  q , where q is only the net free charge.
