The Electrostatic Force
• Charge of objects
• And separation distance – Influence the force between them.

As q increases, F increases.

As D increases, F decreases.

Coulomb’s Law
• Notice that d is squared!!!!!! This is another example of an inverse-square law.

Symmetries• Recall Newton’s Law of Gravitation:
• And Coulomb’s Law:
• Notice the similarities??

G (6.67 x 10-11 N-m2/kg2) was a proportionality constant
Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
kc (8.99 x 109 N-m2/C2) is the proportionality constant
Coulomb’s Law
![Page 9: Columbs law pp](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062406/558e51881a28ab570a8b457a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Using Coulomb’s Law
• Why do they use such small numbers for ordinary objects? Wouldn’t it make more sense to call them 1 C instead??
• The answer lies in the famous “Oil Drop Experiment.”

Using Coulomb’s Law
• So what sort of charges are we talking about?
q is 1-10 CVERY LARGE
q is more like 10-6 or 10-9 C

The Elementary Charge
• Robert Millikan -1909– electric charge is quantized.
• Quantized - things can only have certain values, not just any value.
• Ex. Is it possible to own 2 ½ bicycles???• Animation 1 (Quicktime)• Animation 2 (Java)

The Elementary Charge
• Millikan demonstrated that all the oil droplets had charges which were multiples of each other!
• All the droplets carried some multiple of what is called the Elementary Charge, 1.6 x 10-19 Coulombs.
• This is the charge of a single proton or electron.
• Ordinary objects have charges like 10-9 C, this is still about 10 billion excess charges!!!

Using Coulomb’s Law
• Why is Coulomb’s Law called an “inverse-square law?”
• Because of the d2 in the equation.
• Doubling the distance between objects cuts the force by ¼ , just like Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation.
• Ex. Sound intensity, Spray paint, the “Butter Gun”

Bohr’s Model of Hydrogen
• You’ve seen the similarities between Newon’s U.L.o.G. and Coulomb’s Law. Niels Bohr used this similarity to create a model of the Hydrogen atom.
• Just like the Earth orbiting the Sun, Bohr pictured the electron orbiting the proton.
