Abstract:
A few hundred years have passed since the discovery of electricity and electromagnetic fields, formulating them as Maxwell's equations, but the nature of an electric charge remains unknown. Why do particles with the same charge repel and opposing charges attract? Is the electric charge a primary intrinsic property of a particle? These questions cannot be answered until the nature of the electric charge is identified. The present study provides an explicit description of the gravitational constant G and the origin of electric charge will be inferred using generalized dimensional analysis. Key words: Electric charge, gravitational constant, dimensional analysis, particle mass change.Keywords:

New electric-field measuring equipment was constructed. The electric-field distribution was obtained from potential distribution measured by a single capacitive probe through numerical calculation by a microcomputer. The single capacitive probe was fabricated with the technique of vacuum evaporation of aluminum and SiO. The electric-field distribution under acoustoelectric current oscillated state in CdS was measured. The electric-field distribution measured by the present method was compared with that obtained by the time derivative of potential.

Joule heating of liquid films in the presence of an externally applied electric field is influenced by the formation of the electric double layer. The thickness and charge distribution inside the electric double layer determine the extent of interaction of the charge in the electric double layer with the externally applied electric field and the Joule heating of the electrolyte layer. For this reason, the effects of externally applied electric field (both parallel and along the normal to the surface) on the electric double layer are being studied in the present paper. In the absence of the externally applied electric field, the distribution of the electric potential in the double layer is given by Poisson equation. Assuming Boltzmann distribution for the ionic concentration in the double layer, one arrives at Poisson-Boltzmann equation for the electric potential distribution. The externally applied electric field changes this electric potential distribution. Hence, the contribution of the externally applied electric field is studied by including it in the Poisson-Boltzmann equation.

Considering the stresses due to the vacuum fluctuation and the electric charge loaded over the surface of a spherical cavity, we estimate the maximum value of the charge. Since this value is independent of the cavity size and parameter free, it is regarded as the electric unit charge. Our result is $Q= 1.55\times 10^{-19}$ Coulomb which implies the relevant fine structure constant $α=1/145.90$.

The quantitative descriptions are given to the distribution of electric potential and electric field intensity outside the conducting spheroid which is inside the uniform electric field.Its distribution of electric potential is that an electric potential of reacting doublet is superimposed on the original uniform electric field.The comparison expression of electric field intensity and electric potential leads to the mathematical expression of the electric field intensity and a detailed discussion of its distribution on the tangential and radial direction is conducted.

Electric charge has no direct meaning for strong interactions, yet is involved in the octet model in such a way that the size of the elementary unit of electric charge becomes tied to the topology of the group of strong interaction symmetries. This tie may indicate a relationship of electric charge to another kind of charge got directly from topology of the group.
