Conservation of Charge (Grade 10 NSC Matric Physical Sciences): Flashcards

Net charge of isolated system remains constant

No, only transferred between objects

Materials that let electrons move easily through them

Materials that don't allow charge carriers to move through

Stays exactly where it was put

Spreads out over entire outside surface

$Q = \frac{Q_1 + Q_2}{2}$

$e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}$ C

$Q = nq_e$ where $n$ is an integer

Coulomb (C)
