Every physical phenomenon in the Physics world involves some sort of attractions and repulsions and make the world exist in a special form. It is because of attraction and repulsions between particles that the environment remains in a well-equipped and well balanced environment.

Coulomb’S Law | Physics
- 2. Coulomb’s Law  Coulomb stated that the force of attraction/repulsion between two charges is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them  The force is of repulsive nature if both charges are of same sign and it is of attractive nature if both charges are of opposite sign
- 3. Discovery of Coulomb’s Law  Coulomb performed an experiment and stated the Coulomb’s Law in accordance with it  He used torsion balance and two spheres  He recorded measures of force by varying distance of both spheres and then proceeded to the conclusion
- 4. Vector Form of Coulomb’s Law  As force is a vector quantity, it has direction too  We introduce position vectors to define the vector form of Coulomb’s Law
- 5. Limitations  Coulomb’s Law can only be used if there the charges are at rest  The law is valid if both the charges are kept in a vacuum
