Electrostatics
Charge-✔One of the basic properties of the elementary particles of matter
giving rise to all electric and magnetic forces and interactions
Electrostatic charge-✔Electric charge at rest on the surface of an insulated
body
Electric Force Field-✔The region around a charged particle or object in
which it exerts a force on other charged particles or objects
The direction of the electric field (at a point)-✔The direction that a positive
test charge would move if placed at that point
Electrostatic Force-✔The force exerted by non-moving (static) charges on
each other
Basic Law of Electrical Charges-✔Like charges repel each other while
unlike charges attract each other
Law of Conservation of Charge-✔The net charge of an isolated system
remains constant
