A negatively charged particle
What is an electron
These are repelled
What are objects of the same charge?
Electricity at rest. When charged particles are not in motion
What is electrostatics?
A positively charged particle
What is a proton?
The electric force becomes stronger when the two charges are (closer or farther away)
What is closer
These objects are attracted
What are objects of the opposite charge?
A neutral particle
What is a neutron?
The electrostatic force is measured in this unit
What is Newtons
A property of matter that causes it to experience a force when near other electrically charged matter.
What is electric charge?
This is the symbol for charge
What is Q?
This is the change to the electric force if one of the two charges is doubled
What is doubled?
Charge cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transferred from one object to another.
What is the law of conservation of charge?
These are the units for charge
What are Coulombs?
The distance between the charge and electric force are this
What is inversely related
The electrons in a neutral object are this by a nearby charged object
What is influenced by?
