Definition: Right-Handed Coordinate Systems
•
•
•
We always use right-handed
coordinate systems.
In three-dimensions the righthand rule determines which way
the positive axes point.
Curl the fingers of your RIGHT
HAND so they go from x to y.
Your thumb will point in the
positive z direction.

This course uses several right hand rules related to this one!

Fields are used to explain “Action at a Distance”
• Place a test mass, test charge, or test current at some test point in a field
• It feels a force due to the presence of remote sources of the field.
• The sources “alter space” at every possible test point.
• The forces (vectors) at a test point due to multiple sources add up
via superposition (the individual field vectors add & form the net field).

CHARGE IS A “CONSERVED” QUANTITY
LIKE ENERGY, MOMENTUM, ANGULAR MOMENTUM, usually MASS

Net charge never just disappears or appears from nowhere.
Charges can be cancelled or screened by those of opposite sign
All of chemistry is about exchanging & conserving charge among atoms & molecules
Nuclear reactions conserve charge, e.g. radioactive decay: 92U238  90Th234 + 2He4
Pair Production & annihilation: g  e- + e+ (electron – positron pair)
ALL MATTER IS ELECTRICAL…
… BUT…matter is normally electrically neutral
(equal numbers of + and – charges).
(Why?)
OBJECTS WITH A NET CHARGE HAVE LOST OR GAINED SOME BASIC CHARGES
• Net + charge  deficit of electrons (excess of “holes”)
• Net – charge  excess electrons (deficit of “holes”).
• Why isn’t all matter a gas? Electrical forces hold matter together.
• Outside neutral objects electrical forces are “screened”, but not completely
• Weak “leftover” electrical force (Van der Waal’s) makes atoms stick together
& defines properties of solids, liquids, and gases.

MODERN ATOMIC PHYSICS (1900 – 1932): Rutherford, Bohr
•
Charge is quantized: e = 1.6x10-19 coulombs (small).
•
•
Electrons ( -e) are in stable orbital clouds with radius ~ 10-10 m.,
•
•
mass me = 9.1x10-31 kg. (small). Atoms are mostly space.
Protons ( +e) are in a small nucleus, r ~10-15 m , mp= 1.67x10-27 kg,
•
•
•
Every charge is an exact multiple of +/- e. Milliken ~1900.
Ze = nuclear charge, Z = atomic number. There are neutrons too.
A neutral atom has equal # of electrons and protons.
An ion is charged + or – and will attract opposite charges to become neutral

• Regular lattice of fixed + ions
• conduction band free electrons

• Electrons and ions both free
to move independently
• Normally random motion
• Electrons & ions move in opposite
directions in an E field.
Insulators: Charges not free to move
Electrons are tightly bound to ions...
...BUT insulators can be induced to polarize by nearby charges
Insulators can be solids, liquids, or gases

Force on test charge Q is attractive toward both negative
charges, hence they could cancel.
By symmetry, position for +Q in equilibrium is along y-axis
Coordinate system: call the total distance L and call y the
position of charge +Q from charge q.
Net force is sum of the two force vectors, and has to be

Shell Theorem (Similar to gravitational Shell Theorem)
• Holds for spherical symmetry only: shell or solid sphere
• Uniform surface charge density s - not free to move (insulator)
• Shell has radius R, total charge Q
•
s  Q/A  Q/4 pR 2

dimensions are Coulombs / m
Outside a shell, r > R: Uniform shell responds to charged
particle q as if all the shell’s charge is a point charge at
the center of the shell.
Inside a shell, r < R: Charged particle q inside uniform hollow
shell of charge feels zero net electrostatic force from the shell.
Why Copyright
does the

theorem
work? spherical symmetry  cancellations

Charge on a spherical conductor – charge free to move
•
•
Net charge Q on a spherical shell spreads out everywhere over the
surface.
Tiny free charges inside the conductor push on the others and move
as far apart as they can go. When do they stop moving?
If no other charges are nearby (“isolated” system)
•
•
Charges would spread themselves out uniformly because of symmetry
Sphere would act as if all of it’s charge is concentrated at the center
(for points outside the sphere) as in the Shell Theorem.

The test charge induces polarization charge on the sphere
• Charge distribution will NOT be uniform any more
• Extra surface charge is induced on the near and far surfaces of the sphere
• The net force will be slightly more attractive than for point charges
The Shell Theorem works approximately for conductors if the test charge
induces very little polarization; e.g., if q << Q and/or d >> R.

For q1 & q2 as in the sketch where should a proton (test charge) be placed to
be in equilibrium (Fnet = 0, use “free body diagrams” & symmetry)
Proton in Region I:

Both forces to the right
No equilibrium possible

Forces can never balance
So balance point exists here
