Jinsi ya kukokotoa Coulombs Law
Coulombs Law ni nini?
Coulomb's Law quantifies the electrostatic force between two charged particles. It states that the force is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Fomula
The calculator applies F = k × |q₁ × q₂| / r² where k is Coulomb\'s constant
- F
- k × |q₁ × q₂| / r² where k is Coulomb\'s constant — k × |q₁ × q₂| / r² where k is Coulomb\'s constant
Mwongozo wa Hatua kwa Hatua
- 1Input the magnitudes of two electric charges and the distance between them
- 2The calculator applies F = k × |q₁ × q₂| / r² where k is Coulomb's constant
- 3Results show the electrostatic force in Newtons
Mifano Iliyotatuliwa
Ingizo
q₁ = 2 μC, q₂ = 3 μC, r = 0.5 m
Matokeo
F ≈ 0.216 N
Using k = 8.99 × 10⁹ N·m²/C²
Makosa ya Kawaida ya Kuepuka
- ✕Forgetting to square the distance in the denominator
- ✕Using distance in centimeters instead of meters, which affects calculation accuracy
Maswali yanayoulizwa mara kwa mara
Why does force decrease with distance squared?
The electric field spreads spherically in three-dimensional space, so its strength decreases with the inverse square of distance.
Can this law handle opposite charges?
Yes, opposite charges experience attractive force (negative) while like charges experience repulsive force (positive).
