Electric charge is a fundamental property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electric field. It can be either positive or negative, and is measured in units of Coulombs (C).
Electric charge is created by the movement of electrons. When electrons move from one object to another, the object that gains electrons becomes negatively charged, while the object that loses electrons becomes positively charged.
The net force on a charged object is the sum of all the individual forces acting on it due to other charged objects. This can be calculated using Coulomb's Law, which states that the force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Electric charge is distributed on an object either uniformly or non-uniformly, depending on the material and its shape. In a conductor, the charge is distributed evenly on the surface, while in an insulator, the charge tends to accumulate at specific points on the surface.
Electric force is the force that one charged object exerts on another, while electric field is the region around a charged object where another charged object experiences a force. Electric field is a vector quantity, while electric force is a scalar quantity.
