Question: What is charge?
Answer: We don’t know exactly.
What we do know however is that
• It comes in two types and some particles
have a non zero amount of it
• charge can be associated with a “Field”
• charged particles can interact with each
other through a field to produce a force
• force due to charge interaction can be
quantified (Coulomb’s Law)

Coulomb’s Law
This repulsion and
attraction gives rise to
a force
Coulomb’s Law
Rule 1: Like charges repel each other
…and this force can be
quantified
Rule 2: Opposite charges attract each other

How to use Coulomb’s Law
qq
F = k 1 2 2 rˆ
r
• In this case both charges are of the same sign. Therefore, the
force is repulsive and the magnitude of Coulomb’s law says that
the force is a positive value.
• Force is a vector, and vectors have direction. In the image above
there are two vectors. Which one is it?
• This is the job of the unit vector at the end of Coulomb’s law to
answer.
