Question
Chapter 22, Problem 1RCQ
To determine
The term used for “electricity at rest”.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1RCQ
Solution:
The term used for electricity at rest is electrostatics.
Explanation of Solution
Electrostatics (means static electricity) which is defined as follows: “Electrostatic is a branch of science and it implies the charges are static, which suggests there is no motion of charge from the body they are in. Which deals with electricity at rest, such as stationary charges on conductors and laws governing them.”
Conclusion:
Hence, electrostatic is a term used for electricity at rest.
