2. Fact #1
Coulomb’s law states that the electric force between charged objects inversely depends upon the distance between the objects.

3. Fact #2
The coulomb, is a fundamental unit of electrical charge. ( unit symbol: C ) it is equal to the charge of approximately x 10 18

4. Fact #3
He did research on friction of machinery, on windmills, and on the elasticity of metals and silk fibers.

5. Fact #4
Charles Augustin de Coulomb was born on June 14th, He died on August 23,1806

6. Fact #5
The coulomb torsion balance is an instrument that enables to verify experimentally the quantitative law of interaction between electrical charges.
