Term

Coulomb's Law

(Force exerted on one charge by another)

Definition

F = k( Q*q) / r 2

Term

The force on a charge

Definition

F = q*E

q = Charge on particle

E = electric field

Term

The Electric Field Equation

Definition

E = k* q / r2

k = constant

q = charge

r = distance from point to field

Term

Electric Potential / Voltage

Definition

V = k (q/r)

k = constant

q= charge

r = radius from charge

Term

Potential Energy of interacting charges

Definition

W = qV = ΔK = U(e) = k (q*q) / r

q = charge

v = voltage

k = idk
