So I've created a program in C# with the XNA libraries which is meant to simulate motion between charged particles. I drew a pic to show the problem I'm having and how I'm moving the particle.
The forces between charged particles are known as electrostatic forces, which are caused by the attraction or repulsion of positive and negative charges.
The forces between charged particles can either increase or decrease the energy of the particles. When particles with opposite charges are attracted to each other, energy is released, while particles with like charges repel each other, requiring an input of energy.
No, energy is not created or destroyed in the forces between charged particles. It is simply transferred from one form to another.
The energy in the forces between charged particles comes from the electric potential energy stored in the particles themselves. This stored energy is released when the particles come closer together or move away from each other.
The energy between charged particles is inversely proportional to the distance between them. As the distance decreases, the force and energy increase, and vice versa. This is known as Coulomb's law.
