SLANT: STATIC CHARGE Continued

  1. THE STRENGTH OF ELECTRIC FORCES DEPENDS ON THE AMOUNT OF CHARGE and THE DISTANCE between them

    • MORE CHARGE EQUALS MORE FORCE

    • MORE DISTANCE EQUALS LESS FORCE

  2. electrons can transfer from one object to another

    • conductors allow electrons to easily pass from areas where they are concentrated to areas where there are relatively few

      • a conductor is any material which electrons can easily move through

    • insulators do not allow electrons to pass through them

      • an insulator is any material that electrons cannot easily move through

    • certain insulators allow electrons to build upon the surface of them creating a static charge

  3. electrons can be transferred by contact

    • some materials hold their electrons more loosely than others

    • materials that hold electrons more tightly tend to "grab" and "hold” electrons from these

    • this is how objects develop a static charge
