Coulomb’s Law Apparatus
Coulomb’s Law
Study the force between two electric charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Mathematical Representation
F: electrostatic force
k: Coulomb’s constant
Q1, Q2: charges of the two objects
r: distance between the charges
Potential Investigations
- Quantitative analysis of force-distance relationship.
- Determination of Coulomb’s constant through experimental data.
- Investigation of the effect of charge magnitude on electrostatic force.
- Study of the impact of different dielectric materials on force.
- Exploration of the role of humidity and temperature on experimental results.

Electrostatic
Open Case Form Electroscope
Charge is indicated by deflection of an aluminized plastic straw which rotates freely on the saddle of the conducting rod. A scale on the instrument’s back is graduated in degrees to allow measurement of the deflection. The conducting rod is recessed in the metal housing to shield against air currents. With replacements aluminized straws.
