Electric Charge is the Intrinsic property of fundamental particles (like electrons, w bosons and quarks etc).
OR
Electric charge is the intrinsic physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when kept in an electric or magnetic field.
An electric charge is associated with an electric field, and the moving electric charge generates a magnetic field. A combination of electric and magnetic fields is known as the electromagnetic field.
Electrostatics
- The study of charges at rest is called electrostatics.
- The fundamental law of electrostatics is called Coulomb's law.
Current and Electricity
- The study of charges with constant speed is called current and electricity.
- The fundamental law of current and electricity is Ohm's law.
- The study of charges with variable speed is called electricity and magnetism.
- The fundamental laws of electricity and magnetism are Maxwell Equations.
