Class 12 Electrostatics Summary Notes

Electric charge is a fundamental property of matter that produces and experiences electrical and magnetic effects. There are two types of charge: positive and negative. The SI unit of charge is the coulomb. Electric field lines represent the electric field graphically - they emanate from positive charges and ingress into negative charges, are continuous curves, and their tangent at any point indicates the electric field direction there.
