Charge Quantity

Electric charge has a symbol Q measured in Coulomb unit C . One coulomb charge contains N_-m . Positive electric charge has symbol +Q carries +1C . Negative electric charge has symbol +Q carries +1C

${\displaystyle 1C=}$

Electric Field

All electric charge process electric field lines pointing inward or outward . For negative charge, the electric field lines point inward . For positive charge, the electric field lines point outward.

Negative Charge . Positive Charge

Magnetic Field

All charge process circular magnetic field lines point inward or outward surround charge . For negative charge, the electric field lines point inward . For positive charge, the electric field lines point outward.

Negative Charge . B ↑

Positive Charge . B ↓

Electric charges interaction

Coulomb discovered that charges of the same polaities will repulse . Charges of different polarities will attract . Negative charge will attract positive charge . The force of attraction is called Electrostatic force or Coulomb force . Electrostatic force has a symbol F_Q measured in unit Newton N

Electrostatic force or Coulomb force is used in calculating the force of negative charge attracts positive charge

${\displaystyle F_{Q}={\frac {|Q_{+}||Q_{-}|}{r^{2}}}}$

Electric charge and electricity interaction

Ampere discovered that, electricity exerts a force to force electric charge to move in a linear path will create a field of electric lines called Electric field . This force is called Electrodynamic force or Ampere force which has a symbol F_E measured in unit Newton N

${\displaystyle F_{E}=QE}$

Electric charge and magnet interaction

Lorentz discovered that when electric charge travels through a magnet, magnet exerts a force to deflect

${\displaystyle F_{B}=\pm QvB}$
