Electrical energy is closely connected with electric charge, electric potential, current, resistance, and power. Charge can be transferred by rubbing, and that transfer explains static electricity. When charge moves through a conductor, electric current is produced. A cell supplies the potential dif
Key Concepts
The electricity or charge developed on
The electricity or charge developed on a body on rubbing with another body is called frictional electricity or static electricity. Rubbing does not cr
Two types of charge are produced
Two types of charge are produced on rubbing: positive and negative. A glass rod rubbed with silk acquires positive charge, while an ebonite rod rubbed
Conservation of charge states that
Conservation of charge states that the total amount of electric charge in an isolated system does not change with time.
According to Coulomb's law
According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely
Electrostatic potential is the work done
Electrostatic potential is the work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to a point. Potential difference is the work done in moving
