Structure of atom:
Positively Charged Particles
In this type of particles, numbers of positive ions are larger than the numbers of negative ions. In other words, numbers of protons are larger than the number of electrons.
p+>e-
Negatively Charged Particles
In this type of particles, numbers of negative ions are larger than the numbers of positive ions. In other words, numbers of electrons are larger than the number of protons.
e+>p-
Neutral Particles
These types of particles include equal numbers of protons and electrons. Be careful, they have both protons, neutrons and electrons, however, numbers of “+” ions are equal to the numbers of “-” ions.
e+=p-
Atoms having the same charge repel each other and atoms having opposite charges attract each other.
Types of Charging
Charging means gaining or losing the electron. Matters can be charged with three ways, charging by friction, charging by contact and charging by induction.
Charging by Friction
When you rub one material to another, they are charged by friction. Material losing electron is positively charged and material gaining electron is negatively charged. Amount of gained and lost electron is equal to each other.
Charging by Contact
There are equal numbers of electrons and protons in a neutral matter. If something changes this balance we can say it is charged.
1. When charged object touches to a neutral object, they both have the same charge.
2. When two charged matter touches each other, the total charge of the system is conserved and they share the total charge according to their capacities. If they have the same amount of different charges, when we touch one another they become neutral. If the amount of charges is different then, after the flow of charge they are both negatively or positively charged. Having opposite charges after contact is impossible.
Charging by Induction
A and B conductors are neutral at the beginning. When we put a positively charged plate near them, it attracts the electrons in the conductors. Electrons move to the left part and protons stay. Thus, when we separate plates A and B they are charged by induction, A is negatively charged and B is negatively charged. Be careful, there is no contact; they are charged only by induction.
Electroscope
It is a device that is used for detecting whether an object is charged or uncharged. It also determines the type of charge.
Electrical Forces Coulomb’s Law
Coulomb made some experiments and find following equation of electrical forces.
· If the objects have the same type of charge then the force is repulsive if they have opposite charges then force is attractive.
· Repulsive or attractive electrical forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, it does not depend on the magnitudes of charges.
F1=-F2
Electric Field
A charged particle exerts a force on particles around it. We can call the influence of this force on surroundings as the electric field.
Electric field is a vector quantity. And it decreases with the increasing distance. k =9.109N.m2/C2
Force Acting on a Charged Particle inside Electric Field
E=F/q
F=E.q where; F is the force acting on the charge inside the electric field E.Using this equation we can say that;
If q is positive then F=+E.q and directions of Force and Electric Field are same
If q is negative then F=-E.q and directions of Force and Electric Field are opposite.
Electric Potential and Electric Potential Energy
We learned that in work power energy chapter, objects have potential energy because of their positions. In this case charge in an electric field has also potential energy because of its positions.
Electric Potential
Electric potential is the electric potential energy per unit charge. It is known as voltage in general, represented by V and has unit volt (joule/C).
V=k.q/d
V is a scalar quantity. If q is negative then V becomes negative, or if q is positive then V becomes positive.
Surfaces having equal potentials are called equipotential surfaces.
Capacitance and Capacitors
Capacitance is the ratio of charged gained per potential gained of the conductors. Unit of capacitance is Coulomb per Volt and it is called as Farad (F).
Capacitance is a scalar quantity.
Capacitors
Capacitors are devices designed for storing charge. They are commonly used in computers or electronic systems.
The capacitance of the plates is found with the following formula;
Capacitors in Series and Parallel
In this circuit capacitors are connected in parallel.
We find the charge of each capacitor as;
Q1=C1.V
Q2=C2.V
Q3=C3.V
Ceq=C1+C2+C3
Now we will see the capacitors in series.
Each capacitor has the same charge with battery.
C1.V1=Q
C2.V2=Q, V=V1+V2+V3 and Q=Ceq.V
C3.V3=Q
