What to Focus On

  • Two types of charges exist: positive and negative
  • Like charges repel, unlike charges attract
  • Charge is quantized in multiples of elementary charge e = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

  • Force is proportional to product of charges: F ∝ q₁q₂
  • Force is inversely proportional to square of distance: F ∝ 1/r²
  • Coulomb's constant k = 9 × 10⁹ N⋅m²/C²

  • Electric field E = F/q₀ where q₀ is positive test charge
  • Field due to positive charge points outward, negative charge inward
  • Superposition principle applies: net field is vector sum

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Electric field lines represent the path of motion of positive charges

Electric field inside a conductor is zero only when current is not flowing

Electric flux depends on the shape and size of the Gaussian surface
