Electromagnetism
In general, when a force acts on an object it is incontact with the object.
There are exceptions where the force can act on
an object without being in contact. Gravity
Electricity
Magnetism
Electric forces occur between two objectsbecause each have a special character called
charge.

Electric Charge
Electric chargeis an intrinsic characteristic of thefundamental particles making up those objects.
There were two types of charge: positive and negative.
How was the concept of electric charge discovered?
History: Earliest experiments on charge involved simplestatic attraction and repulsion effects with dielectric rods
rubbed on cloth or fur. For example, If you rub a glass rod with silk, a positive charge appears on
the rod.
Negative charge of equal magnitude appears on the silk.
Now both objects have become charged.

Electric Charge
Rubbing does not create charge but only transfers it fromone body to another upsetting the electrical neutrality of each body during the
process.
Electric charge is conserved: the net charge of any isolatedsystem cannot change.
The most basic charges are the protonand electron.
Proton have positive chargeand electrons have the same
amount of negative charge.
Chargeis measured in Coulombs, abbreviated C. The charge of a proton is 1.6 x 10-19C
The charge of an electron is -1.6 x 10-19C
8/12/2019 Engineering Physics 11 Electromagnetism

Electric Charge
Smallest unit of charge, e=1.6 x 10-19C, is theamount of charge on a proton or electron.
It is a constant of nature and it is called the elementarycharge.
Electric charge is quantized: any charge can bewritten as ne, where nis a positive or negativeinteger and eis elementary charge.
Any two charges create an electric force on eachother. Two charges of same sign repeleach other.
Two charges of opposite sign attracteach other.

Conductors & Insulators
Materials fall into different categories:
Conductors: materials in which charge can movefreely (metals, water with dissolved impurities).
Insulators: materials in which charge cannot movefreely (rubber, plastic, pure water).
Semiconductors: materials that are intermediatebetween conductors and insulators (silicon andgermanium in computer chips).
Superconductors: materials that areperfectconductors.

Coulombs Law If two charged particles are brought near each other,
they each exert a force on the other. This force ofrepulsion or attraction due to the charge propertiesof objects is called an electrostatic force.
Coulombs lawdescribes the electrostatic forcebetween small (point) electric charges q1and q2atrest (or nearly at rest) and separated by a distance r.
The constant k= 8.99x109N.m2/C2 = 1/4peo eo= 8.85x10-12C2 /N. m2is the permittivity constant

Coulombs Law
The force of attraction or repulsionbetweenpoint charges at rest acts along the linejoiningthe two charges.
If more than two charges are present, CoulombsLaw equation holds for each pairof charges.
The net force on each charge is then found, using
the superposition principle, as the vector sum ofthe forces exerted on the charge by all theothers.
We will solve a problem on this topic in the next tutorial!

Electric Field
A single charge (or a collection of charges)creates an electric field in its surrounding space.
A point in space has an electric field, and a
charge at that point experiences a force from theelectric field.
The Electric fieldis defined as the force per unit
charge i.e. the electric field at a point in space is equal to
the force that a 1 Coulomb charge (a unit charge)would feel at that point.
8/12/2019 Engineering Physics 11 Electromagnetism

Electric Field Chargescreate electric field, and electric field creates
forces on charges.
Q E F
Each of these steps produces a vector, either field or
force. That means, an electric fieldhas a magnitude
and a direction at every point.
The electric field vector points awayfrom a positive
charge and towardsa negativecharge.
The electric field at a point due to a collection ofcharges is the vector sumof the electric field created by
every charge.

way to visualizethe electric field.

Field Line representation Electric field linesprovides a means for visualizing
the directionand magnitudeof electric fields.
The electric field vector at any point is tangentto afield line through that point.
The density of field linesin any region is proportionalto the magnitudeof the electric field in that region.
Electric field lines start at positivecharges and end at
negativecharges. Field lines cannot cross!
The field line model is a useful representation rather
than a quantitative method.

We define Ato be a vector having amagnitude equal to the area of thesurface, in a direction normal to thesurface.
The amount of surfaceperpendicular to the electric field isA cos
Therefore, the amount of surfacearea effectively cut through by the

Gauss Law Gauss lawrelates the net flux of an electric fieldthrough a
closed surface (a Gaussian surface) to the net chargeqencthatis enclosed by that surface.
The net charge qencis the algebraic sum
of all the enclosed positive and negativecharges, and it can be positive, negative,or zero.
If qencis positive, the net flux is outward;
if qencis negative, the net flux is inward

Capacitance
A capacitoris a device that stores charge. A capacitor consists of two conductorsseparated by an
insulator.
The simplest capacitor consists of a pair of parallel metal
plates.
When a capacitor is charged, its plates have charges ofequal magnitudes but opposite signs: +qand -q.
However, we refer to the charge of a capacitor as being q,the absolute value of these charges on the plates.
When charge is moved from one plate to the other a
voltage developsbetween the plates.

Capacitance The charge qand the potential differenceVfor a
capacitor are proportional to each other.
q = CV
The proportionality constant Cis called thecapacitance
of the capacitor. Its value depends only on the geometryof the conductors (e.g.
area of plates and their separation) and noton their charge orpotential difference.
The capacitance is a measure of how much charge must be put
on the plates to produce a certain potential difference betweenthem.
The greater the capacitance, the more charge is required.
The units of capacitance are coulomb per voltwhich is
named the farad(1 F = 1 C/V).

Charging a Capacitor
Plate h, losing electrons, becomes positively charged. Plate l, gaining electrons, becomes negatively charged.
As the plates become oppositely charged, that potentialdifference increases until it equals the potential difference V
between the terminals of the battery.
With the electric field zero, there is no further drive ofelectrons.
The capacitor is then said to be fully charged, with a potentialdifference Vand charge q.

Capacitors in Parallel When a potential difference Vis
applied across several capacitorsconnected in parallel, thatpotential difference Vis appliedacross each capacitor.
The total charge qstored on thecapacitors is the sum of thecharges stored on all thecapacitors.
Capacitors connected in parallelcan be replaced with anequivalent capacitorthat has thesame totalcharge qand the samepotential difference Vas the

Resistance
A perfect conductor lets charge flow freely whereasan insulator will not let charge flow at all.
In practice, materials and their geometry (e.g. thinwire versus thick wire), offer some impediment to theflow of charge. This property is known as resistance.
In other words, the resistanceof a material is ameasure of how easily a charge flows through it.
A perfect conductorwould have zero resistance.
A perfect insulatorwould have infinite resistance.

An electric charge qis given a potential energy qVby the battery.
As it moves through the circuit, the charge loses potential energy qV1asit passes through R1, etc.
The charge ends up where it started, so the total energy lostmust equal

(iii) Which one is brighter? To answer the question, we must calculate the power dissipated in the
bulbs for each circuit. The more power consumed, the brighter thebulb.
In both circuits, the bulbs are identical and have identical currentspassing through them (for a given circuit). We pick either bulb for thecalculation.
Series circuit:
We know the resistance andcurrent through each bulb, sowe use:
P = I2R
P = (0.12 A)2 (100 W)
P = 1.44 W
Parallel circuit:
We know the resistance andvoltage drop across each bulb,so we use:
P = V2/ R
P = (24 V)2 / ( 100 W)
P = 5.76 W
Compare:
Pseries= 1.44 W; Pparallel= 5.76 W
