Static Electricity 2
Static Electricity
Static Electricity
Static electricity arises when electrons transfer from one object to another.
Static electricity
Static electricity
- One object becomes positive, one becomes negative.
- This results in a static electric force between the objects.
Electric Fields
Electric Fields
Charged objects create electric fields around them.
Electric fields
Electric fields
- Charged objects create invisible electric fields around themselves, just like magnets create magnetic fields around themselves.
- If another electrically charged object enters an electric field, the charged object will feel a force acting on it.
Electric field direction
Electric field direction
- The direction of an electric field is the direction that a positively charged object would move at that point in the field.
- The direction of an electric field is shown on a diagram by arrows drawn onto the electric field lines.
Depends on charge and distance
Depends on charge and distance
- The closer an object is to the charged object, the stronger the electric field.
- The higher the charge of the object, the stronger the electric field.
