charging process by friction or rubbing.
10. Superposition Principle –governs the net force if
there are more than two charges involved.

exerts a force to charged objects in that region of space
12. Induction is a charging process which happens
when a charged object is placed near a conducting
(neutral) surface.

experienced by a charge is caused by the presence of
another charge

closed surface is equal to the charge enclosed by that
surface divided by the permittivity of free space.

the electric field lines. (can)
17. Electric potential is the potential energy per unit
charge.
18. Field lines are perpendicular to all equipotential
surfaces around a point charge.
19. Conventionally, electric field originates from
negative charges and terminate on positive charges.
(from positive, terminate negative)
20. If a truck battery and a car battery have the same
voltage of 12 V, that means they both have equal
energy.
21. The greater the applied voltage, the greater will be
the charge stored on the plates of a capacitor.
