1
New cards

How do electrons behave in conductors and insulators

Conductors have lots of free electrons, whereas insulators do not have any free electrons

2
New cards

What does the direction of a field line represent in an electric field

The direction a positive test charge would experience a force

3
New cards

What is the field diagram for 2 oppositely charged plates

(typically drawn with parallel equidistant lines with no edge effects)

5
New cards

Electric potential at a point definition

Where the work done to move a positive charge from infinity to that position

6
New cards

How can electrons be transferred from one object to another

Rubbing them together transfers energy to the electrons by friction so they can move between the objects

7
New cards

What is the gradient of a potential-distance graph

-E field strength
