Static Electricity
• Static electricity is the accumulation of electric charges in an
object.
• Some of the real life examples of static electricity are:
Rubbing the balloon on your hair and your hair will stick
onto the balloon.
Rubbing plastic pen or comb on a jumper & pieces of paper
will stick onto it.
Brushing your hair & hair will stick on your skin if you have
a long hair.
If your hair's down, & you're going to put your sweater on
your hair will stick onto your hair.
Electric Charge
• Proton and electron have properties called
electric charge.
• Electric charge is a physical property of matter
which causes it to experience a force when
near other electrically charged matter.
Types of Electric Charge

Types of electric Charge

Positive Charge Negative Charge


Positive Charge
• Positive charge is a phenomenon when an
object loses electrons. Example :
• The hair and balloon, the hair positively charge,
because the electron moves to the balloon.
Negative Charge
• Negative charge is a phenomenon when the
object gains more electrons. Example :
– The hair and balloon, the balloon negatively
charge, because the electron from the hair moves
to the balloon.
Discharging Electric Charges
• A sudden flash of electric charges occurs when
electric charges move together at the same
time is called electrostatic discharge.
• Static discharge is a transfer of charge
between two objects because of a build up of
static electricity.
• Lightning is large static discharge.
Electroscope
• Electroscope is an instrument used to detect
presence of charges.
• Two types of Electroscope, there are:
 Pith-ball Electroscope
 Gold-leaf electroscope
Pith-ball Electroscope
a. Uses of Pith-ball Electroscope
• When a charged body is brought near
the electroscope the light weight pith
ball is first attracted to the rod. Once
it has touched the rod it gets
repelled. When the pith ball comes in
contact with the rod some of the
charge from the rod gets transferred
to the pith ball. As a result, it acquires
similar charge. Because of the similar
charge it then gets repelled.
Attraction precedes repulsion.
b. Picture of Pith-ball Electroscope
Gold-leaf Electroscope
a. Uses of Gold leaf Electroscope

• Figure (a) shows what happens


when a rod 'A' with a positive
charge is brought near the cap.
Electrons are attracted and get
accumulated on 'C'. This leaves
positive charges on 'L' and 'M'.
The repulsion caused by the
leaves diverges them. When
the rod 'A' is taken away the
electrons get distributed and
hence the leaves close.
• When a negatively charged rod
'B' is brought near the cap [Figure
(b)], the free electrons in the
metal are repelled. Thus all the
electrons move away from the
cap to 'L' and 'M'. Since both the
leaves have negative charges they
repel and diverge. The movement
of electrons from the cap gives it
an equal amount of positive
charge. If the charged rod 'B' is
taken away the electrons will get
redistributed and the leaves
collapse.

Electric Field
• The electric field is defined as the force per
unit charge that would be experienced by a
stationary point charge at a given location in
the field.
• The SI unit of electric field intensity is newtons
per coulomb (N C−1).
Electric Field Intensity

• E = the electric field

located

• q = its charge q
• F = the electric force

particle
Electric Field Lines
Electric Force
• Electric force is the interaction of two
electrically charged object.
• The kinds of the interaction are repel and
attract.
When a positive charged When particles have the
particle is near a negative same charge, they repel
charged particle, they are each other.
attracted to each other by
the lines of force.
Coulomb’s Law
• “The magnitude of force between charge qA
and qB is directly proportional to the number
of both charges and inversely proportional to
the square distance (d) between them.”
Coulomb’s Law

r
• F = the electric force experienced by the particle
• k = proportionally constant
• q = quantity of charges
• r = distance between two object
The Unit of Charge
• The SI unit of charge is Coulomb (C).
• One coulomb is the charge of 6.25 x 1018
electrons or proton.
Conclusion
• Static electricity is the accumulation of electric charges
in an object.
• There are 2 types of electric charge:
 Positive charge
 Negative charge
• Electroscope is an instrument used to detect presence of
charges.
• Electric force is the interaction of two electrically
charged object. The kind of the interaction are repel and
attract.
