Question

State and explain coulomb's law

Answer 1

Answer:

Coulomb's law calculates the electric force F in newtons (N) between two electric charges q1 and q2 in coulombs (C) with a distance of r in meters (m): F is the force on q1 and q2 measured in newtons (N). k is Coulomb's constant k = 8.988×109 N⋅m2/C2.

Explanation:Coulomb's law, or Coulomb's inverse-square law, is an experimental law of physics that quantifies the amount of force between two stationary, electrically charged particles. The electric force between charged bodies at rest is conventionally called electrostatic force or Coulomb force.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Coulomb’s Law gives an idea about the force between two point charges. By the word point charge, we mean that in physics, the size of linear charged bodies is very small as against the distance between them. Therefore, we consider them as point charges as it becomes easy for us to calculate the force of attraction/ repulsion between them.
