A Brief Note on the Main Components of the Van de Graaff Generator

A Van de Graaff generator creates static electricity. The current generated by a Van De Graaff generator remains the same, while the voltage changes according to the applied load.  There are mainly two types of Van de Graaff generators: one that uses a high-voltage power supply for charging and one that uses belts and rollers. […]

A Brief Note on Electric Field Due To A Point Charge

The effect of an electric field on basic particles is regulated by electric charge, which is an essential element of matter. Electric charge is made up of natural units that can neither be made nor destroyed. The two forms of electric charges are positive and negative charges. When two things with an overload of one

A Brief Note on Dielectrics

Dielectrics are materials that are very poor conductors of electric current. These are materials in which the outer electrons are firmly bound to their respective nuclei. These electrons cannot leave the nucleus, even if they can be pulled towards a particular side of the nucleus. They are insulators and contain no free electrons. In stark
