This page contains information on the electric force on a point charge. Electric force is created by an external Electric Field.
The Coulomb Force Law
The formula for the magnitude of the electric force of two point charges is: [math]\displaystyle{ |\vec E|=\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 } \frac{|{q}_{1}{q}_{2}|}{r^2} }[/math]
A Mathematical Model
What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net} }[/math] where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.
