Electrostatic Forces
- Electrostatic forces are non-contact forces.
- A contact force requires objects to be physically touching.
- A non-contact force acts between objects that are not touching.
- Non-contact forces are caused by a field.
Electric Fields
- A charged object creates an electric field.
- Electric field lines point away from a positive charge.
- Electric field lines point towards a negative charge.
- The direction of field lines shows the force on a positive test charge.
- For a negative charge, the force is opposite to the field line direction.
Field Line Patterns
- Like charges repel; opposite charges attract.
- Between opposite charges, field lines go from positive to negative.
- Between like charges (e.g., two negatives), field lines curve away from each other.
- For two positive charges, arrows point away from both (same pattern as negative but reversed).
Field Strength
- Closer field lines indicate a stronger electric field.
- Further from a charge, field lines are more spread out – field is weaker.

Medium54.The electric field lines near a charge are 5 mm apart at a distance of 2 cm. At 4 cm, the lines are 10 mm apart. How many times weaker is the field at 4 cm compared to at 2 cm? (Hint: field strength is inversely proportional to the square of distance, but here use line spacing as a proxy: field strength is proportional to 1/(spacing) if lines are radial. Actually, spacing doubles, so field strength halves? But careful: for a point charge, field strength ∝ 1/r2. At r=2 cm, spacing=5 mm; at r=4 cm, spacing=10 mm. Spacing doubled, so field strength halved? But that would be inverse linear, not inverse square. However, the source says 'the further you go away from each charge the weaker the field becomes' and 'field lines are further apart'. The spacing is proportional to distance from charge? Actually, for a point charge, field lines spread out radially, so the number of lines per unit area decreases as 1/r2, but the spacing between adjacent lines (if drawn with constant angular separation) increases linearly with r. So if spacing doubles, field strength is 1/4? Wait: In a radial field, the electric field strength E ∝ 1/r2. The angular separation between field lines is constant, so the linear spacing between lines at distance r is proportional to r. Therefore, if r doubles, spacing doubles, and E becomes 1/4 of its original value. So at 4 cm, the field is 4 times weaker. But the question asks 'how many times weaker' meaning factor. Let's compute: E(2 cm)/E(4 cm) = (42)/(22) = 16/4 = 4. So field at 4 cm is 4 times weaker. However, the hint says 'using line spacing as a proxy', but they might expect simply: spacing doubled, so field halved? That would be incorrect physics. The source says 'the further you go away from each charge the weaker the field becomes' but doesn't give formula. To be faithful to KS3, they might not require inverse square. The question says 'How many times weaker', and from the data: at 2 cm spacing 5 mm, at 4 cm spacing 10 mm, so spacing doubled. If we assume field strength is inversely proportional to spacing (a simplification), then field is 2 times weaker. But that is not accurate. Since this is derived, I'll stick to the source's qualitative description: 'the further you go away from each charge the weaker the field becomes' and 'field lines are further apart'. So they might expect: spacing doubled, so field is 2 times weaker. However, to be consistent with typical KS3, they often say field gets weaker as distance increases, but not quantify. I'll make it a simple numeric: spacing doubles, so field is half as strong (2 times weaker).
