Question
Charges+Q1and –Q2are heldfixed from one another by a distance of d. Find the work done by an external applied force to move a –q from a distance d outside the negative charge (along a line joining the two fixed charges) toa pointdirectly in between thetwo fixed chargeswithoutchanging the kinetic energy of the charge, -q.

P 2.0 cm 2.0 cm 1.0 cm 1.0 cm a) At what distance would a third charge of -3µC be located that would result in zero electric potential at point P. Sketch its possible locations (now think about this). b) Sketch all the components of the Electric field at point P. Quickly assess a possible location for a -3µC point charge so that the net Electric field is zero.arrow_forwardA negatively charged (-121 uC) block is sitting on a frictionless, flat surface. This 12 kg block is attached to a vertical wall with a horizontal, 0.39 m long string that is under a tension of 100 N. Embedded in the wall (on the other side of the string) is another charge. What is the charge of this embedded charge in the wall? Assume that the block is stuck in place.arrow_forward1) One theory about charging insulators is called adhesion. Look this up and explain (in about 3-4 sentences) why charge transfers between two insulators that are rubbed together. 2) Describe what happens to the charge on a neutral metal sphere if a charged rod is brought near (but not touching) the sphere. 3) Does the sphere in the previous question remain neutral?arrow_forward
