The formula provides a natural generalization of the Coulomb's law for cases where the source charge is moving: = [′ ′ + ′ (′ ′) + ′] = ′ Here, and are the electric and magnetic fields respectively, is the electric charge, is the vacuum permittivity (electric field constant) and is the speed of light.
Usually about twice as much energy is released in the explosion as would correspond to the initial antimatter matter annihilation. [13] In the video game Half-Life 2, the item generally known as the "gravity gun" is referred to as both the "zero point field energy manipulator" and the "zero point energy field manipulator." [14]
For a particle whose velocity is small relative to the speed of light (i.e., nonrelativistic), the total power that the particle radiates (when considered as a point charge) can be calculated by the Larmor formula: = (˙) = = = = where ˙ or is the proper acceleration, is the charge, and is the speed of light.

Continuous charge distribution. The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal n̂, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.
The charges must have a spherically symmetric distribution (e.g. be point charges, or a charged metal sphere). The charges must not overlap (e.g. they must be distinct point charges). The charges must be stationary with respect to a nonaccelerating frame of reference. The last of these is known as the electrostatic approximation. When movement ...
The electrostatic potential energy U E stored in a system of two charges is equal to the electrostatic potential energy of a charge in the electrostatic potential generated by the other. That is to say, if charge q 1 generates an electrostatic potential V 1 , which is a function of position r , then U E = q 2 V 1 ( r 2 ) . {\displaystyle U ...
The formula for the ponderomotive energy can be easily derived. A free particle of charge q {\displaystyle q} interacts with an electric field E cos ( ω t ) {\displaystyle E\,\cos(\omega t)} . The force on the charged particle is
Electromagnetic field (arbitrary unit) of a positive point charge moving at constant speed. When =, the electromagnetic field reduces to electrostatic field (in blue).Due to its insignificance at large distance, this field is ignored in high energy physics when computing electromagnetic radiation power.
