Vocabulary
The direction of flow of electrons during static discharge.
What is towards the more positive charged object?
Charge found in a neutron.
What is zero or no charge?
The charge on a balloon after being rubbed on hair or a sweater.
What is negative?
The number of electrons in 1.00 C of charge.
What is 6.25x1018 electrons?
The subatomic particle that can move and transfer from one material to another.
What is an electron?
The force between two charged objects?
What is Electrostatic or Electric Force
Takes place when a charged object comes near another object, but does not touch.
What is induction?
Relationship between distance and force.
What is inversely squared proportional?
Two spheres, +2.5 C and -4.0 C, come in contact. What is there new charge after conduction?
What is -0.75 C?
Type of material that allows for electrons to freely move.
What is a conductor?
A more negative object releases electrons and they flow to the more positively charged object
What is Static Discharge
Takes place when one object rubs on another and steals its electrons.
What is friction?
This would cause the the electrostatic force between two objects to increase by 16 times (x16).
What is decrease the d by 1/4

What is 3.20x10-19 C?
Shape of the graph showing the relationship between F and d.
What is exponential decay?
What states that the total charge of a system must remain constant?
Conservation of Charge
Takes place when two objects touch and electrons are transferred.
What is conduction.
There is 120 N force between two charges. There distance is tripled and both charges are doubled. The new force is...
What is 53 N?
Number of electrons transferred when a -0.0050 C and a -0.0090 C sphere touch via conduction.
What is 1.3x1016 electrons?
