- 1Coulomb's LawAny two stationary point charges experience mutual forces along the line joining them. These forces are attractive if the charges are unlike and repulsive if they are alike. The magnitude of these forces is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them
- 2Principle of SuperpositionWhen more that two point charges are present, the force on any one of them is equal to the vector sum of the forces due to each of the other point charges
- 3Electric Field (Strength)The electric force per unit charge on a small positive test charge placed at a point, provided all charges remain undisturbed.
- 4Electric Potential DifferenceThe work done per unit charge on a small positive test charge moved between two points.
