Answer:

Electrostatic force is a force which performed by electric

Answer 2

Answer:

✯What is an Electrostatic Force?

The electrostatic force is an attractive and repulsive force between particles are caused due to their electric charges. The electric force between stationary charged body is conventionally known as the electrostatic force. It is also referred to as Columb’s force.

✯Coulomb’s Law of Electrostatics

We begin with the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two point charges q and Q . It is convenient to label one of these charges, q , as a test charge, and call Q a source charge. As we develop the theory, more source charges will be added. If r is the distance between two charges, then the force of electrostatic formula is:

$</p><p></p><p>F= \frac{1}{4πξ _{0}} \: \: \: \frac{</p><p>qQ}{r _{2}} \: k _{e} = \frac{qQ}{ {r}^{2} } </p><p></p><p>$

✯Electric field

Electric field lines are useful for visualizing the electric field. Field lines begin on positive charge and terminate on negative charge. Electric field lines are parallel to the direction of the electric field, and the density of these field lines is a measure of the magnitude of the electric field at any given point.

We show charge with “q” or “Q” and smallest unit charge is 1.6021 x 10-19 Coulomb (C). One electron and a proton have same amount of charge.

✯Positively Charged Particles

In this type of particles, numbers of positive ions are larger than the numbers of negative ions. Means, the numbers of protons are larger than the number of electrons.To neutralize positively charged particles, electrons from the surroundings come to this particle until the number of protons and electrons become equal.

✯Negatively Charged Particles

Similarly numbers of electrons are larger than the number of protons. To neutralize negatively charged particles, since protons cannot move and cannot come to negatively charged particles, electrons moves to the ground or any other particle around

✧✧Neutral Particles: Include equal numbers of protons and electrons. They have both protons, neutrons and electrons however, numbers of positive ions are equal to the numbers of negative ions.

✯Electrostatics Examples

There are many examples of electrostatic phenomena:

• The attraction of the plastic wrap to your hand after you remove it from a package.
• The attraction of paper to a charged scale.
• The apparently spontaneous explosion of grain silos
• The damage of electronic components during manufacturing
• Photocopier & laser printer operation

Explanation:

✯Activitiy

All matter is put together by electrostatic forces. Forces that come about due to charged particles attracting each other.

Rub a balloon against a woolen fabric or carpet. Static electricity builds up and we can actually attract other charged particles or even neutral objects. Using a balloon see how many items around the room you can attract and explain the reason for the attraction. Below is a table with some examples, complete the rest.

Giving a reason to describe the behaviour may be a little difficult at this stage, so navigate through the links and pick up as much information on the eletrostatic nature of matter as you can.

Static electricity can be generated by rubbing surfaces together.
