Introduction-Electrostatics and Dielectrics

Electrostatics is the branch of physics that deals with electric charges at rest and the forces, fields, and potentials they produce. Electric Charge (q) A fundamental property of matter. Two types:Positive (+) Negative (−) Coulomb's Law-It describes the force between two charges: Electric Field (E)-Region around a charge where another charge experiences force. Electric Potential (V)-Work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to a point.
