INTRODUCTION

Electrostatics 

is

used 

in

a

wide 

range 

of

applications 

ranging 

from 

the

calculation 

of

atomic 

forces 

to

wrapping 

of

leftover 

food 

items. 

All

of

these 

applications 

can

be

understood 

by

the

application 

of

a

few

principles

based 

on

numerous 

observations. 

This 

chapter 

describes 

these 

principles

and

gives 

the

formulas 

used 

to

calculate 

the

magnitude 

of

the

effects. 

The

ideas 

presented 

here 

will 

be

used 

repeatedly 

in

the

later 

chapters 

to

discuss

particular 

aspects 

of

electrostatics.

COULOMB’S 

LAW

Electrostatics 

is

based 

primarily 

on

the

observation 

that 

like 

charges 

repel

and

unlike 

charges 

attract, 

as

indicated 

in

Fig. 

1.

The

force 

is

observed

to

increase 

linearly 

with 

each 

of

the

two

charges, 

so

that

(

)

The

magnitude 

of

the

force 

falls 

off

quadratically 

as

the

charges 

are

sepa

rated, 

so

the

force 

expression 

can

be

further 

specified 

as
