Physics Classroom is making strides to make our site accessible to
everyone, and features many accessibility features.
Our site contains 6 navigation areas. The Primary, Secondary,
and Page Level navigations have a screen reader version of their nav
structure that allows using the left and right keys to navigate sibling
navigation items, and up or down keys to navigate parent or child
navigation items. The others can be navigated using tabs.
Within the main content, we leverage headers to provide in page or
in tool navigation.
Although we are still rebuilding our content to leverage these tools,
our images should have both short and verbose descriptions, the later
describing in great detail the image for those who cannot see. Any
formulas found within the images are often in the image figure below the image.
Equations and formulas are rendered using MathJax, which has both verbal,
braille (including nemath braille), and keyboard navigation within them.
Learn how to configure and leverage this for various screen readers on our
Equation Navigation Page.
While not every area of
Physics Classroom is usable purely from keyboard and screen reader, we
are committed to continue work on making this possible. If you have
questions or need additional help, please use

The Calculator Pad - Static Electricity Chapter - Problems #3- #9
When it's time to practice solving Physics word problems, you'll get plenty of it at our Calculator Pad. You will find problems, answers, and audio-guided solutions. What more could you ask for? Give problems #3- #9 a try to improve your Coulomb's Law problem-solving skills.
Minds On Physics the App, Part 4, Missions SE8 and SE9 in the Static Electricity Module
Minds On Physics includes interactive questioning modules that provide a rigorous workout in careful reading, analytical thinking, and conceptual reasoning. Mission SE8 and SE9 from our Static Electricity module is all about Coulomb's Law. Put on your work-out clothes and get started.
Coulomb's Law Concept Builder
Coulomb's Law can be used as a guide to thinking about how a change in one variable effects other variables. This Concept Builder will give you plenty of chances to do that type of thinking.
Physics Interactives, Static Electricity Chapter, Electric Force Simulation
This simulation allows you to alter the quantity of charge on two charged objects, to drag them around and change their separation distance, and to observe the force of attraction and repuslion. Now that's Coulomb's Law in action.
Curriculum Corner, Static Electricity Section
Our Curriculum Corner is composed of a collection of Think Sheets. Each one makes for a great component of any Lesson Plan. They work great for both independent practice exercises and cooperative group exercises. The following Think Sheet makes a great complement to this video: Coulomb's Law
The Calculator Pad - Static Electricity Chapter - Problems #3- #9
When it's time to practice solving Physics word problems, students will get plenty of it at our Calculator Pad. They will find problems, answers, and audio-guided solutions. What more could one ask for? Problems #3- #9 are Coulomb's Law problems.
Minds On Physics the App, Part 4, Missions SE8 and SE9 in the Static Electricity Module
Minds On Physics is not for the meek-hearted. They are interactive questioning modules that provide a rigorous workout in careful reading, analytical thinking, and conceptual reasoning. Missions SE8 and SE9 from our Static Electricity module pertain to Coulomb's Law

Physics Interactives, Static Electricity Chapter, Electric Force Simulation
This simulation allows students to alter the quantity of charge on two charged objects, to drag them around and change their separation distance, and to observe the force of attraction and repuslion. And like most our simulations, there's a classroom-ready activity sheet available if needed.
Physics Classroom Tutorial, Static Elecricity Chapter
It reads like a book ... but much better. Our Tutorial section has long been the most trafficked section of our website. And for good reason - it's understandable. We recommend leaving links to specific pages on your Course page. The following pages will be helpful complements to this video: Charge Interactions Revisited Coulomb's Law
Teacher Toolkit: Coulomb's Law
Teacher Toolkits provide teachers with a collection of resources that are ideal for planning standards-based, multimedia lessons and units. We've combed the web and selected some of the best, most professional simulations, videos, and other tools that complement the resources present at The Physics Classroom.
