Question

explain electric charge and electric field. Also give two examples and one question about it.

not by hand please and do not copy others work from chegg.

Answer 1

Electric Charge: It is a physical property of matter by which it experiences force when it placed in electric field or moving in magnetic field. There is a force of attraction or repulsion between two electric charges.

Electric charge is quantized and discreet in nature, there are two types of electric charge, one that experiences force in the direction of electric field when it is kept in it i.e. positive change and other that experiences force in the opposite direction of the electric field that is negative charge.

Electric charge is measured in coulomb.

Smallest electric charge that is generally available is of amount +e or -e where e =1.6×10^-19 C

The most common electric charge particles are electrons and protons.

Electric field: it is a space or region in which an electric change experiences force, the strength of electric field at a point is described as force per unit charge at that place.

If a charge q is placed in an electric field of strength E then it experiences force F = qE.

Electric field is produced by electric charge or electrically charged objects.
