Extended Coulomb's Law: Need Help w/ LaTeX

    Law
In summary, Extended Coulomb's Law is an expansion of the traditional Coulomb's Law, which describes the electrostatic force between two point charges. It takes into account the size and shape of the charges, as well as the medium in which they are located. This extension is necessary for calculating the force between more complex charge distributions, such as non-point charges or charges in a non-uniform medium. The mathematical equation for Extended Coulomb's Law is more complex than the traditional form, but it allows for more accurate calculations of electrostatic forces. Help with typesetting the equation using LaTeX can be found online or through resources provided by software such as MATLAB or Wolfram Alpha.

I FOUND THIS EXPRESSION TO AN EXTENDED COULOMB´S LAW:

F = (k*q1*q2/r2)(1 -v2/c2)

BUT I NEED TO USE THE LATEX...HELP

SOMEBODY COULD HELP ME?

The formula is wrong, but in Latex it would be
[tex]F=q_1 q_2(1-v^2/c^2)/r^2[/tex].

if you separate the formula, may be you can begin to understand it, just do it and we continue

What does "separate" mean?

ok.

F = (kq1*q2/r2)*(1-v2/c2) = electric force (coulomb´s law) - magnetic force

F = (kq1*q2/r2) - (magnetic constant)*q1*q2*v2)/4*pi*r2

could some phenomena like this exists?

No, because the magnetic and electric fields of a moving particle are more complicated than you have assumed.

I´ve got two static charges in my hands and I measure the electric field, but I´m in a spaceship, just someone out of the spaceship see the magnetic field. How many complicated things see that observer?. I measure electric fields in the earth. What´s the traveling speed of the Earth around the Universe?

The relativistic formula for the fields of a moving charge are in most advanced EM textbooks. They enter to order v^2/c^2, which is too small to see with the Earth's velocity. But the v^2/c^2 correction to E is of the same order as the v^2/c^2 magneitc effect.

Grab an E&M book, as clem says, or look here: http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teaching/jk1/lectures/node26.html"

I´ve got an article "Conceptual error in contemporary science", the author is: Joseph J. Smulsky. He presents a formula very similar to the formula shown in The electromagnetic field due to a uniformly moving charge. Which one is right?

I wanted to establish an equilibrium forces equation and I got the formula I present.

But F = (K*q1*q2/4*pi*r2)(1-v2/c2) it´s just a step for the complete equilibrium equation, there are more forces including fictitious forces.

I calculated using biot-savart law and lorentz force the magnetic force and I was adding terms to the equation.

Finally I wanted a formula for electron velocity in atomic structure
 

FAQ: Extended Coulomb's Law: Need Help w/ LaTeX

What is Extended Coulomb's Law?

Extended Coulomb's Law is an extension of the original Coulomb's Law, which describes the electrostatic force between two point charges. It takes into account the size and shape of the charged objects, as well as the distribution of charge within them.

What is the equation for Extended Coulomb's Law?

The equation for Extended Coulomb's Law is F = k * (Q1 * Q2 / r^2) * (cosθ1 * cosθ2 / d^2), where F is the force between two charged objects, k is the Coulomb's constant, Q1 and Q2 are the charges of the two objects, r is the distance between the centers of the objects, θ1 and θ2 are the angles at which the force acts, and d is the distance between the two objects.

How is Extended Coulomb's Law different from Coulomb's Law?

Extended Coulomb's Law takes into account the size and shape of charged objects, as well as the distribution of charge within them. Coulomb's Law only applies to point charges, meaning objects with no size or shape.

What are some applications of Extended Coulomb's Law?

Extended Coulomb's Law is useful in studying the electrostatic force between complex objects, such as molecules or particles with non-uniform charge distributions. It is also used in fields such as chemistry, materials science, and biophysics.

How can I use LaTeX to write the equation for Extended Coulomb's Law?

To write the equation for Extended Coulomb's Law in LaTeX, you can use the following code:

$F = k * (Q1 * Q2 / r^2) * (cos\theta_1 * cos\theta_2 / d^2)$

This will produce the equation with proper formatting and symbols.
