Concepts to Learn Today

Which charges attract and repel each other

Everything is electric!

Charges can be separated between two objects

Charge is always conservedSlide3

From the sticky tape investigation, we can conclude that there are two different

types

of electrical charge…Slide4

What are charges?

There appears to be some invisible force that sometimes attracts and sometimes repelled.

In 600 BC, the Greek mathematician Thales discovered that amber (Gk. “

electron

”) can attract other objects if it is rubbed with fur.

As time went on, it was discovered that

electric

objects can either repel or attract other electric objects.Benjamin Franklin proposed a name for two types of electric charge: positive and negative.Like charges repel each other; opposite charges attract.Slide5

We know today that these “electric” charges come from

atoms

—which are made of tiny electric charges called protons and electrons!Slide7

So, because everything is made of atoms, all matter is electric in nature! Stones, stars, and all living things—all stuff is made up of atoms, which are made up of electric charges!Slide8

How important are electric charges?

Charges are everywhere and mean everything to how our world is structured.

Charges provide:

Strong chemical bonds like in

NaCl

(salt)

The tension force in a stretched spring

The adhesive force of glue

The normal force between your butt and the chairCan you think of an example of charges at work in your life?Slide9

There’s no skiing without charges!

What does it mean to be electrically charged?

J.J. Thomson discovered that electric charge comes in a natural unit, with a proton and electron representing the smallest amount of charge.

Proton = positive charge

Electron = negative charge

If an object has an excess of protons or electrons, it is said to be charged (either positively or negatively).

Neutral

objects have equal amounts of positive and negative charges.Slide11

Charge is made up of natural

units

or discrete amounts, similar to our money system.

Cash is in one-cent increments. You cannot divide a large amount of cash into an amount smaller than one cent.

Similarly, charge is in increments. The proton and electron have the smallest charge possible, and all charge is measured in increments of this “fundamental” charge.Slide13

Charge is “Conserved”

You may have experienced the consequences of separating charges already…

Charge is “Conserved”

Charges are separated and transferred between objects, but the

total amount of charge in the system remains the same

.

If your socks pull 100 electrons off the carpet, let’s say your socks acquired a charge of -100.

What’s the total charge on the carpet?

What’s the total charge of the system?Slide15

What’s the total charge of the system?

Charge cannot be created or destroyed—you never lose charge. In other words, charge always goes somewhere!Slide16

Carpet fibers on a dry day are good

insulators

. Why? Rubbing causes charge to build up on you, and—since it can’t flow through the

insulating

fibers of the carpet—it remains on you! That is, until you touch a

conducting doorknob!Slide17

Charge is “Conserved”

Anytime electrons are transferred from one object to another, the total electric charge in the whole system remains the same.

If an object gains electrons, it acquires a negative charge.*

If an object loses electrons, it acquires a positive charge.*

If you rub a neutral plastic rod and fur together, the rod acquires a negative charge (by taking electrons) but the fur acquires a positive charge

of the same magnitude

(since it lost as many electrons that the rod gained).

*Notice that only electrons are the charges that get transferred between objects, never protons. We’ll see this more tomorrow!Slide18

When the upper and lower pieces of tape were pulled apart, what conclusions can you make about the electric charges?

Exit Quiz

What happens when two materials with the same charge are brought near each other?

What are the two kinds of charges called?

What kind of charge does a proton possess

?

Why do we say everything is electric?

If the “upper” piece of tape acquired 100 electrons and acquired a charge of -100 as it was ripped off the “lower” piece of tape. What must the charge on the “lower” piece of tape be?
