Electric charge is a --- quantity with SI unit..?
scalar quantity, SI unit- Coulomb (C)
-
How do you charge by induction?
Presence of near charged body.
Insulated conductors can be charged this way.- charged body close to I.C. (seperates charges)
- earth side furthest away from C.B.
- remove earth then remove charged body.
-
How do you charge 2 bodies by induction?
- 2 insulated conductors touching
- Hold charged rod nearby
- separate insulated conductors
- remove rod
-
What is used to detect charge?
Gold leaf electroscope
Like charge leaf rises, unlike charge leaf falls
-
How would you show that static charge on an insulated conductor always resides on outside
proof plane ... van der graafs generator+ GLE
-
How is charge held on a pointed sphere?
Around point. can lead to point discharge
