F = q q/r^2
ma = q q / r^2
Under which particle does the mass apply to?
ma = q q / r^2
Under which particle does the mass apply to?
xAxis said:That's not field. Those are equations for the electrostatic force. acceleration is not imparted by mass.
xAxis said:Ok, true, but then what is your question? :)
Coloumb's Law is a fundamental principle in physics that describes the force between two charged particles. It states that the force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Acceleration under Coloumb's Law is caused by the electric force between two charged particles, while acceleration due to gravity is caused by the gravitational force between two masses. Additionally, acceleration under Coloumb's Law can be either attractive or repulsive, while acceleration due to gravity is always attractive.
Yes, the medium between two charged particles can affect the acceleration under Coloumb's Law. The presence of a medium, such as air or water, can change the strength and direction of the electric force between two charged particles.
The distance between two charged particles has a significant impact on the acceleration under Coloumb's Law. As the distance between the particles decreases, the electric force between them increases, resulting in a greater acceleration. As the distance increases, the force and acceleration decrease.
Yes, acceleration under Coloumb's Law can be negative. This occurs when the charges of the two particles are opposite, resulting in an attractive force. In this case, the acceleration is in the opposite direction of the initial motion of the charged particles, resulting in a negative value.
