Title: Lesson 11 Forces and Electrical Charges


1
  • Chapter 1
  • Lesson 1-1 Forces and Electrical Charges

2
Thales
  • Greek who lived around 600 B.C.E.
  • One of the first to describe phenomenon related
    to electricity
  • Described what happened when rubbed a piece of
    amber with wool

3
William Gilbert
  • English scientist repeated Thales experiment in
    1570
  • Named the effects electricity
  • Electricity comes form the Greek word for amber,
    elektron

4
Thales and Gilbert
  • Discovered electricity is everywhere

5
Electric Energy Energy ability to do work or
cause changes
  • stove converts electric energy into heat energy
    that cooks food
  • light bulb converts electric energy into light
    and heat energy

6
Electric Charge
  • Electrical charge is a force within the particle.
  • Basic property of matter
  • All matter is made up of atoms.

7
Atoms
  • Everything in the universe is made of atoms

8
  • The human body is made of atoms.
  • Air and water are, too.
  • Atoms are the building blocks of the universe.

9
  • If you could see an atom, it would look a little
    like a tiny center of balls surrounded by giant
    invisible shells.

10
  • Atoms are so small that millions of them would
    fit on the head of a pin.

11
  • Atoms are made of even smaller particles. The
    center of an atom is called the nucleus. It is
    made of particles called protons and neutrons.

12
  • The protons and neutrons are very small, but
    electrons are much, much smaller.

13
  • Electrons spin around the nucleus in shells a
    great distance from the nucleus.

14
  • If the nucleus were the size of a tennis ball,
    the atom would be the size of the Empire State
    Building. Atoms are mostly empty space.

15
Protons, Electrons, Neutrons
  • Protons - have a positive charge ()
  • Electrons - have a negative charge (-)
  • Neutrons - carry no charge
  • number of neutrons can vary

16
Electrical Charge
  • Concentration of electric charges

17
Law of Electric ChargeLike Charges Repel
  • Objects that have the same charge repel each
    other
  • Object exerts a force on the other object
  • Forces push objects apart

18
Law of Electric Charge Opposite Charges Attract
  • Objects that have opposite charges are attracted
    to each other
  • Object exerts a force on the other object
  • Forces pull the objects together

Static Charge
  • Electrically neutral
  • equal number of protons and electrons
  • Static Charge
  • Object has a positive or negative charge
  • Neutral objects gains electrons, negatively
    charge
  • Neutral objects loses electrons, positively charge

21
Static Electricity
  • Buildup of charge on an object
  • Most static charges trillions times larger than
    charge of single electron or proton
  • Examples
  • Shock from touching doorknob after walking on
    carpet
  • Lightning

22
Comb and Paper Experiment
  • Effect of static electricity when small pieces of
    paper were attracted to plastic comb after comb
    was rubbed with wool

23
THREE WAYS TO CHARGE AN OBJECT
24
FRICTION
CONDUCTION
INDUCTION
25
FRICTION
  • Objects can be charged by rubbing them together
  • when two neutral objects rub together, electrons
    are transferred from one object to the other
  • Example
  • Static Cling as clothes tumble together in
    dryer some become positively charged and others
    negatively charged

26
  • Charging by friction
  • Gives two neutral materials opposite charges when
    rubbed together
  • NO NEW CHARGES ARE CREATED
  • Existing charges move to other objects or to new
    areas on the same object

27
FRICTION - DEMONSTRATION
  • Rubber rod that is rubbed against a piece of wool
  • Electrons move from the wool to the rod
  • Rod becomes negatively charged
  • Wool becomes positively charged

28
FRICTION - DEMONSTRATION
  • Rubbing a balloon on your hair
  • electrons move from hair to the balloon
  • balloon becomes negatively charged
  • hair becomes positively charged

29
Conduction
  • Neutral objects can be charged by coming into
    contact with an already charged object
  • when a charged object touches a neutral object,
    electrons are transferred to the neutral object
  • objects that are charged by conduction have the
    same charge as the object that was used to charge
    them

30
  • Charging by conduction
  • Happens when electrons move from one object to
    another by direct contact
  • NO NEW CHARGES ARE CREATED

31
CONDUCTION - DEMONSTRATION
  • Touch a negatively charged rubber rod to a pile
    of neutral paper confetti
  • confetti quickly flies apart
  • pieces of confetti gain electrons and become
    negatively charged
  • like charges repel

32
CONDUCTION - DEMONSTRATION
  • A positively charged glass rod touches an
    uncharged metal rod
  • electrons from the metal rod move to the glass
    rod
  • the metal rod looses electrons and becomes
    positively charged

33
Induction
  • Charged object is brought close to a neutral
    conductor, electrons in the neutral conductor can
    move to the new positions
  • A material has areas of both negative and
    positive charges
  • Causes an object to have a charge that is
    opposite to the charge that is brought near it

34
  • Charging by induction
  • Happens when charges in an uncharged object are
    rearranged without direct contact with a charged
    object

35
INDUCTION - DEMONSTRATION
  • Rub a balloon against someones hair, charging
    the balloon by friction. The balloon becomes
    negatively charged. Hold the balloon near a
    neutral wall and let go.
  • negative charge of the balloon induces a region
    of positive charge on the wall

36
MISCONCEPTION ALERT!!!!!!
  • MISCONCEPTION atoms can gain or lose protons as
    well as electrons
  • TRUTH
  • atoms can only lose or gain electrons, which are
    negatively charged
  • A net loss of electrons leaves an atom positively
    charges
  • A net gain of electrons leaves and atom
    negatively charged

37
Conservation of Charge
  • When you charge something by any method, no
    charges are created or destroyed
  • The numbers of electrons and protons stay the
    same
  • Electrons simply move from one atom to another
  • Charges are neither created or destroyed, they
    are conserved
