Charles-Augustin de Coulomb (14 June
1736 23 August 1806) was a French military
engineer and physicist. He is commonly
known from Coulomb's law, the description
of the electrostatic force of attraction and
repulsion, but also did important work on
friction.

The SI unit of electric charge. the coulomb, was named in


his honour in 1908. In 1785, Coulomb presented his first
three reports on Electricity and Magnetism. Coulomb
describes "How to construct and use an electric balance
(torsion balance) based on the property of the metal wires
of having a reaction torsion force proportional to the
torsion angle." Coulomb also experimentally determined
the law that explains how "two bodies electrified of the
same kind of Electricity exert on each other."
Coulomb explained the laws of attraction and repulsion
between electric charges and magnetic poles, although he
did not find any relationship between the two phenomena.
He thought that the attraction and repulsion were due to
different kinds of fluids.
Coulomb’s Law
Coulomb's law, or Coulomb's inverse-square law, is a law of
physics for quantifying Coulomb's force, or electrostatic force.
Electrostatic force is the amount of force with which stationary,
electrically charged particles either repel, or attract each other.
This force and the law for quantifying it. represent one of the most
basic forms of force used in the physical sciences, and were an
essential basis to the study and development of the theory and field
of classical electromagnetism. The law was first published in 1785
by French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb.
In its scalar form, the law is
where k is Coulomb's constant
(k = 9x10° N m² C²), Q1 and
Q₂ are the signed magnitudes
of the charges, and the R is the distance between the charges. The
force of the interaction between the charges is attractive if the
charges have opposite signs (F is negative) and repulsive if like-
signed (F is positive).

Being an inverse-square law, the law is analogous to Isaac


Newton's inverse-square law of universal gravitation. Coulomb's
law can be used to derive Gauss's law, and vice versa. The law has
been tested extensively, and all observations have upheld the laws
of Newton.

Material Required
To estimate the charge induced on each of  Small size identical
styrofoam or pithballs
the two identical styrofoam or pithballs
 Meter scale
suspended in a vertical plane by making  Teflon thread
use of Coulumbs’s law  Stand
 Glass rod
Procedure:  Silk cloth
1) Weight the mass of each identical pith balls by balance and note down it.
2) Tie the balls with two silk or cotton threads and suspend at a point on a
stand or a rigid support. Measure the length of threads by meter scale. The
length of threads should be equal Note down the length.
3) Rub the glass rod with silk cloth and touch with both balls together so that
the balls acquired equal charge.
4) Suspend the balls freely and the balls stay away a certain distance between
the balls when they become stationary. Note down the distance.
5) Touch any one suspended ball with other uncharged third ball and takes the
third ball away and repeat the step 4.
6) Touch other suspended ball with other uncharged fourth ball and takes the
fourth ball away and repeat the step 4.

Precautions
 The suspended balls should not be touched by any conducting body.
 Rub the glass rod properly with the silk cloth to produce more
charge.
 Weight the mass of the balls accurately.

SOURCES OF ERROR:-
 The balls may not be of equal size and mass.
 The distance between the balls may be measured
accurately.
