does electric force on a charged particle depens on mass

Question

mani_jha · Answer

According to the research done by Coulomb, it is not:
$$F=KQq/r ^{2}$$

mani_jha · Answer

It depends only on charges of the substances, and their separation.
This is rather non-intuitive, I agree. You can't notice the force in large masses, because then the acceleration(a=F/m) will be very small. A charged comb will cause small paper bits to move, but not a large peice of paper. Actually, it attracts the paper bits and the large peice of paper with the same force, but the acceleration produced in the large paper is too small to be noticed.

Nope. amount of disbalance between positive and negative species. aka protons and electrons. (or ions for that matter, but they are made of Ps and Es itself)
