OBJECTIVES

 

  • To describe qualitatively the phenomena of electrification, electrostatic attraction and repulsion and to introduce the concepts of electric charge, insulators and conductors.  
  • To justify Coulomb's law and use it to calculate the force exerted by one or two charged particles on another.
  • To justify field intensity and calculate its value in the case of one or two charged particles.
  • To describe the electric field using force lines.
  • To justify the concepts of potential electric energy and potential, as well as using them to calculate the work done when moving a particle in the electric field.  
  • To observe the relation between field intensity and potential.
  • To carry out some predictions on the movement of charges in uniform fields.
