Electrostatic

Electrostatics is the study of electric charges at rest. It involves the forces between charges, the electric fields created by charges, and the resulting potential energy. Key concepts include Coulomb’s Law, which describes the force between two charges, and the concept of an electric field, a region around a charged particle where a force would be exerted on other charged particles. Electrostatic phenomena are evident in everyday life, from static electricity in clothing to the operation of electronic devices.
