What are the differences between Coulombs law and Gauss law?

0

Basically, both the laws are related to fundamental concepts of Electrical science. Both the laws are related with the electrical charges. 1. Coulomb’s law gives you the relation between the forces between the two charges q1 and q2 with the attractive/repulsive force and the distance between those two charges. The law states that the Coulombian force between the two charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of the charges viz. q1 and q2 and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two[Popularly known as inverse square law]. The proportionality constant depends on the system of units used. Mathematically, F=(q1q2)/(4*pi*epsilon not) for SI Units for air or vacuum as surrounding medium. If any other medium is used, epsilon r comes into picture. 2.Gauss law on the other hand gives you the relation between the Electric Intensity[coulombian force acting per unit electric charge] near the Gaussian surface[any closed surface which encloses a d
