Here, we will discuss about Electrostatics. It is a branch of physics in which static electric field produced by static electric charges are studied.
Electrostatics plays a major role in everyday life. The various applications of electrostatics include photocopiers, defibrillator, paint spraying, electrostatic precipitator etc.
The computer peripheral devices include liquid crystal display (LCD), keyboard, touch pads works on the principle of electrostatics. Electrostatics is used in the agricultural activities like spraying to plants, sorting seeds etc. Electronic components such as capacitors, resistors etc. function based on electrostatics.
