whereF is the
force between two charges Q1 and Q2 a
distance d apart in a medium of permittivity .
The permittivity of a medium is given by its relative permittivity times
the permittivity of a vacuum.
If a charge Q experience a force F
when placed in an electric field, then the field strength is given by E.
whereW is the energy gained when a charge
Q is accelerated by a potential difference V.
whereC is the capacitance of a conductor
which has a charge Q and a potential V.
whereC is the
capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor. The common area of the plates
is A. The distance between the plates is d. The permittivity
of the medium between the plates is .
whereW is the energy stored in a
capacitor of capacitance C with a potential V.
