Answers for test your knowledge

1. Methods of electrification are: friction, induction, contact. 2. Electroscope. 3. Coulomb. 4. |Q| = Nxe

Coulomb's Law

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGf1_8eUJvw The electrostatic force of interaction is: Directly proportional to the product of the charges Inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges. Attractive for unlike charges(+ve..-ve) Repulsive for like charges(+ve..+ve  or -ve..-ve). Click to Run

static charges, example of charging by friction and electrostatic interaction

Upon friction charges are transferred from one body to another. Charges interact and redistribute from a distance, this is charging by induction. Click to Run
