What is electrostatic force? Give an simple experiment to observe its effect.
Answers
Answer:
Electrostatics is a branch of physics that studies electric charges at rest. Since classical physics, it has been known that some materials, such as amber, attract lightweight particles after rubbing. The Greek word for amber, ήλεκτρον, or electron, was thus the source of the word 'electricity'.
Equation
In the equation Felect = k • Q1 • Q2 / d2 , the symbol Felect represents the electrostatic force of

Answer:
electrostatic force is also known as the Coulomb force or Coulomb interaction. It's the attractive or repulsive force between two electrically charged objects. Like charges repel each other while unlike charges attract each other. Coulomb's law is used to calculate the strength of the force between two charges. Experiment :- Remember how the Harry Potter cast levitated their feathers using the ‘Wingardium Leviosa’ charm? Now you can too with the power of static electricity!
What you will need:
a plastic rod
a piece of cloth
a light plastic bag
Steps:
Rub the surface of the rod with the cloth for 40 seconds
Flatten the plastic bag and rub the cloth against its surface for 40 seconds
Release the plastic bag and watch it levitate as you wave the rod below
How it works: (Hint: It’s not magic!)
The rod and cloth gain become negatively charged after you rub them with a cloth. As like charges repel, the plastic bag appears to repel.
