Electric charge the charge of an electron is negative, "−e", while that of a proton is positive, "+e". Charged particles whose charges have the same sign repel one another, and particles whose charges have different signs attract. Coulomb's law quantifies the electrostatic force between two particles by asserting that the force is proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The charge of an antiparticle equals that of the corresponding particle, but with opposite sign. The electric charge of a macroscopic object is the sum of the electric charges of the particles
Kennedy (given name) Kennedy (given name) Kennedy is a unisex given name in the English language. The name is an Anglicised form of a masculine given name in the Irish language. According to Patrick Hanks and Flavia Hodges, the given name "Kennedy" is an Anglicised form of "Cinnéidigh", a masculine given name in the Irish language.
