➢ 6.25 × 1018 (6 billion billion)
2. Charge is quantized:
➢ Commonly used unit: 𝜇𝐶, 𝑛𝐶
➢ Minimum charge quantity (fundamental charge)
➢ 𝑒 = 1.6 × 10 −19 𝐶 3. Charges interact with each other
➢ There exists an electric force.
3. Charges interact with each other
➢ Electric force is a noncontact force.
➢ Like charges (+ + and − −) repel
➢ Manner of interaction provides force direction.
➢ Unlike charges (+ − and − +) attract
➢ Force is vector. Therefore one should know how
to use vector.

Point charges
➢ Size is negligible. ➢ The size of proton: ~ 𝑓𝑚 (10−15 𝑚)
➢ Ideal model for solving problems ➢ The size of electron: so small that currently unknown

Ch22-2 Charging an Object
Examples of using the three basic charge properties
In normal situations, an object is electrically neutral even through the object has billions upon billions of
atoms. Charging an object leaves the object with more electrons or protons, making the total net charge
negative or positive. This requires moving electrons from one place to another. But because electrons are so
small, how does one go about moving it? And what tools can be used to store electrons?

Conductor Insulator

Michael Faraday (1791—1867)
➢ He received little formal education, his mathematical abilities were limited to the
simplest algebra. (At the age of 14 he became an apprentice to a local bookseller.
During a 7-year apprenticeship, Faraday read many books.)
➢ He was one of the most influential scientists in history.
➢ He was an excellent experimentalist and has an ability to convey his ideas in clear and
simple language.
➢ Faraday's concept of lines of flux provided a way to visualize electric and magnetic
fields; Crucial for a conceptual model…
➢ He is one of Albert Einstein’s three heroes. Einstein kept pictures of Faraday, Isaac
Newton and James Clerk Maxwell on his study wall.
➢ Faraday was a leader in his church, whose faith and wish to serve guided him
throughout his career.
➢ Faraday was not interested in acquiring wealth. He repeatedly turned down highly paid
consultancy work for government and industry.
➢ He turned down the offer of presidency of the Royal Society twice (in 1848 and 1858).
➢ During his lifetime, he was offered a knighthood in recognition for his services to Taken by an unknown photographer
