    High School How to measure charge, charge units, and Coulomb constant

    I was asking about how it's possible to find out (is there an equation or is it just an experimental thing?) what charge exactly a certain object has. So, if you for example have an atom (just as an example!) with 5 protons, 5 neutrons and 20 electrons, then how can I say what charge the atom has?

    High School How to measure charge, charge units, and Coulomb constant

    I've learned it on this website : http://study.com/academy/lesson/electric-force-definition-equation.html If you scroll down a bit then you will find the headline : Calculating Electric Force Using Coulomb's Law and in its text you can find the explanation and the equation of coulombs law, but...

    High School How to measure charge, charge units, and Coulomb constant

    Hello everyone! I'm currently trying to calculate electric forces between two objects, so for that I of course need Coulomb's Law. I understood its equation (etc.), but there are 3 things that I haven't found out yet: -How exactly can you find out or calculate what amount of charge an object...

    High School Methods of accelerating in space?

    hello ! I was thinking about some ideas of new ways to accelerate spacecraft s in space, but for that it would be helpful to know which methods are currently in use. I'm talking about the acceleration in general, so both at a place in space influenced more by gravity ( like Earth orbit ) and a...

    What sparked Torge's interest in space engineering?

    Hey there! I'm new to this forum, so I guess I'll just quickly introduce myself! My name is Torge, I'm a 14-year-old student in 9th grade of a german Gymnasium and I'm super interested in physics, mainly astrophysics and space engineering, which is the reason for why I'm here! I know, lots of...
