  2. Electrostatic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_induction

    Therefore electrostatic induction ensures that the electric field everywhere inside a conductive object is zero. A remaining question is how large the induced charges are. The movement of charges is caused by the force exerted on them by the electric field of the external charged object, by Coulomb's law .

  3. Faraday's ice pail experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_ice_pail_experiment

    The induction process is reversible: in Procedure 4, when C is removed, the attraction of the opposite charges cause them to intermingle again, and the charge on the surfaces reduces to zero. It is the electrostatic field of the charged object C which causes the mobile charges to move.

  4. Kelvin water dropper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_water_dropper

    The higher the charge that accumulates in each bucket, the higher the electrical potential on the rings and the more effective this process of electrostatic induction is. [2] During the induction process, there is an electric current that flows in the form of positive or negative ions in the water of the supply lines.

  5. Coefficients of potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficients_of_potential

    where the c ij with i = j are called the coefficients of capacity and the c ij with i ≠ j are called the coefficients of electrostatic induction. [1] For a system of two spherical conductors held at the same potential, [2] = (+), = (+)

  6. Line of force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_of_force

    A tube of force, also called a tube of electrostatic induction or field tube, are the lines of electric force which moves so that its beginning traces a closed curve on a positive surface, its end will trace a corresponding closed curve on the negative surface, and the line of force itself will generate an inductive tubular surface.

  7. Electrophorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophorus

    Charge conservation while using an electrophorus.. Charge in the universe is conserved. The electrophorus simply separates positive and negative charges. A positive or negative charge ends up on the metal plate (or other storage conductor), and the opposite charge is stored in another object after grounding (in the earth or the person touching the metal plate).

  9. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    Faraday's law of induction (or simply Faraday's law) is a law of electromagnetism predicting how a magnetic field will interact with an electric circuit to produce an electromotive force (emf). This phenomenon, known as electromagnetic induction , is the fundamental operating principle of transformers , inductors , and many types of electric ...
