Are force and charge the same?

The concept of charge arises from an observation of nature: We observe forces between objects. Electric charge is the property of objects that gives rise to this observed force. Like gravity, electric force “acts at a distance”.

Does force depend on charge?

” The magnitude of the electric force that a particle exerts on another particle is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them….22.1. Introduction.

Is charge a force?

Charge is wave amplitude at a given distance (r). It can be expressed as energy, but it is often expressed as a force, known as Coulomb’s law.

What is the relationship between the force on a charged sphere and the amount of charge?

Note that Coulomb’s law applies only to charged objects that are not moving with respect to each other. The law says that the force is proportional to the amount of charge on each object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

What is the relationship of current to charge?

An electric current is a flow of charged particles. In metal conductors the charged particles are free electrons….The relationship between current I and quantity of charge Q.

What mathematical relationship did you find between force and the amount of charge?

How does Coulomb force between two charges affected when each charge is tripled and the distance between them is also tripled?

Explanation: The electrostatic force is directly related to the product of the charges and inversely related to the square of the separation distance. Tripling one of the charges would serve to triple the force. Tripling the distance would serve to reduce the force by a factor of nine.
