Study Plan

1
Day 1–2

Learn the Theory

Read the textbook chapter carefully. Note down definitions, formulas and key ideas. Focus on: Basic Properties of Electric Charges, Coulomb's Law and Force Between Charges, Electric Field and Field Lines.

2
Day 3

Practise

Solve the textbook exercises and extra practice questions. There are 52 questions available for this chapter.

3
Day 4

Revise & Test

Revise key points without looking at your notes. Take a practice quiz and mark weak areas for another pass.

4
Day 7

Spaced Revision

Come back to Electrical Charges and Fields after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Charging by friction produces opposite charges on two materials.
  • Like charges repel; unlike charges attract.
  • Charge is conserved in an isolated system.
  • Coulomb’s Law: F ∝ q₁q₂/r²
  • k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² in vacuum
  • Force is attractive for opposite charges, repulsive for like charges.
  • Electric field E = F/q₀ (vector, unit: N/C)
  • For a point charge: E = kq/r²
  • Dipole field: axial E = 2kp/r³, equatorial E = kp/r³

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Electric field lines are real physical paths that charges follow.

Coulomb's law can be applied directly to any two charged objects, regardless of shape or size.

The electric field is zero wherever there is no charge.

Memory Tips

Two types of electric charges: positive and negative

Like charges repel, unlike charges attract

Conservation of charge

Quantisation of charge: Q = Ne
