A particular type of fiel provies a escription of ow tat particular uantity varies trougout space. iels o not consist of fiel substance, tey are not anyting aterial, rater tey are eans for escribing a istortion in space: a fiel is a tool uc like a vector is a tool. orce fiels inicate ow uc force acts on any particle susceptible to tat fiel. Since force is a vector uantity, a force fiel ust represent te irection of force as well as te uantity of force. GRAVITY gravitational fiel gravitational force ass electric fiel electric force carge I. THE IELD AROUND A SPHERICAL MASS Gravitational force exists between any two objects wit ass.

Again, a larger ass in tis fiel experiences a greater force, but te ratio of force per ass (i.e. te fiel) is constant. II.

Doubling te ensity of te eart woul tus ouble te strengt of te gravitational fiel. g g IELD UNITS: Since te gravitational fiel is a escription of gravitational force per unit of ass, te units are units of force ivie by units of ass. In te SI syste, te unit of gravitational fiel strengt is N/kg (newton per kilogra, wic can be siplifie to /s 2 ). Since te electric fiel is a escription of electric force per unit of carge, te units are units of force ivie by units of carge. In te SI syste, te unit of electric fiel strengt is N/C (newton per coulob). To ouble te force acting on a given particle, one woul ave to ouble te carge on te plates witout increasing te area of te plates. In oter wors, one woul ave to ouble te carge ensity of te plates.

5 PyzGuie: POTENTIAL ENERGY sie-by-sie coparison of gravitational an electrical potential energy Wen a force is exerte on an object over a certain istance, we say tat work as been one. Wen an object is ierse in a force fiel, we can o work on tat object by oving it against te force exerte troug te fiel. Te work we o in suc a case becoes te potential energy of te object. If te object is release, te fiel will o work on it exerting a force on te object in accorance wit te strengt of te fiel an te susceptibility of te object to tat fiel. or instance, a aer roppe fro a eigt of one eter is acte on by gravity. Te force acting on te aer woul be stronger on te eart tan on te oon because te eart s gravitational fiel is stronger tan te oon s. If a penny were also roppe fro 1, it woul not experience as uc force because it as less ass.

6 PyzGuie: POTENTIAL a sie-by-sie coparison of gravitational an electrical potential An object wit ass elevate above a reference point on Eart as gravitational potential energy. An object wit carge elevate above an euilibriu point in an electric fiel as electrical potential energy. (Electric euilibriu is attaine, for exaple, wen a positive carge reaces a negative plate, or vice versa.) In te case of electricity, it is useful to know ow uc potential energy per unit of carge is associate wit a point in space. Potential energy per unit carge is calle electrical potential (also calle voltage an electrootive force). Gravitational potential is a less useful concept tat escribes ow uc potential energy per unit of ass is associate wit a point in space. We stuy gravitional potential at tis point only so tat we can copare it to electrical potential.
