What to study for electrostatics quizzes:

1) Demo Lab Quiz: study by viewing these electrostatic videos:

This year's demos: : Electrostatic Polarization, Induction and Electrophorus

Last year's demos: Electrostatics 1 | Electrostatics 2 | Electrostatics 3

2) All or Nothing Quiz: Know the following


Units for Electric Field (E in N/C), Charge (q in C), Electric Force (F in N), Electric Potential Energy (PE in J), and Electric Potential (V in J/C).

How to find number of electrons given the charge OR how to find the charge given the number of electrons. (See Circuit 11 p2)

Be sure you know how to use mm and μC (microCoulombs) when calculating. (See Electrostatics 1)

Know how objects become positive or negative and how charges move on the metal spheres. (See Electrostatics 1 and Electrostatics 2)

Be able to do simple calculations for Electric Force and Electric Field ( Electrostatics 1 and Electrostatics 2)
