This video explains the angles of elevation and depression.

• Determine the variables that affect how charged bodies interact.
• Predict how charged bodies will interact.
• Describe the strength and direction of the electric field around a charged body.
• Use free-body diagrams and vector addition to help explain the interactions.

In this online lesson you will learn how to compare measurements that have different units.

In this unit you will learn how to convert between common metric units of measure.

By the end of this unit you will be able to:

• Use a ruler and protractor accurately
• Understand the SI system of measurement
• Convert between different units

Electric charge comes in two varieties, which we call positive and negative. Like charges repel each other, and unlike charges attract each other. Thus, two positive charges repel each other, as do two negative charges. A positive charge and a negative charge attract each other.

How do we know there are two types of electric charge? When various materials are rubbed together in controlled ways, certain combinations of materials always result in a net charge of one type on one material and a net charge of the opposite type on the other material. By convention, we call one type of charge positive and the other type negative.

This lesson explores appropriate units for metric measurement.
