Particle or Point Particle

[edit]

Strait, Shall we add the word "point" before the word particle in the opening sentence.

In this sentence: "The fundamental equation of electrostatics is Coulomb's law, which describes the electric force between two point charges." It seems electric force should be electrostatic force. Do you agree? Bvcrist 22:16, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
