Electrostatics the study of static
0:02
charges. Definition in physics
0:05
electrostatics is the branch of
0:07
electricity that deals with electric
0:10
charges at rest their forces fields and
0:13
effects. Explanation Electrostatics
0:16
explains how charges interact when they
0:19
are not moving. Like charges repel,
0:22
unlike charges attract and these
0:24
interactions create electric fields.
0:27
Callum's law mathematically describes
0:30
the force between two charges.
0:32
Electrostatics also studies phenomena
0:35
like charging by friction, conduction
0:38
and induction which are fundamental to
0:40
understanding capacitors, insulators and
0:43
electric potential. Key points deals
0:46
with static electric charges not moving

like charges repel unlike charges
