Question
You have an oxygen nucleus (charge 8e) and a distance of 7.3 x 10-6 m.
a) What is the electric potential at this point?
b) If you place an alpha particle (charge 2e) at this point, what is the electric force between them?
c) What is the electric potential energy between them?

- Potential, electric potential, and potential difference whose symbol is V refer to the amount of work energy needed to move a unit of electric charge a certain distance in an electric field. (This is not the same as electric potential energy whose symbol is U!!) Here are some different formulas for electric potential, V, in different problems: Work to move an amount of charge: V=w/q clipart 2 charges on x-axis-2.JPG Potential difference between two charged plates: V=Ed clip art electric field plate-2.jpg Electric potential at a distance from a charge: V=kq/r clipart 2 charges on x-axis-3.JPG What's the electric potential involved for each case below?

- A small particle has charge -4.60 µC and mass 1.70x10-4 kg. It moves from point A, where the electric potential is VA = 300 V, to point B, where the electric potential VB = 820 V is greater than the potential at point A. The electric force is the only force acting on the particle. The particle has a speed of 6.00 m/s at point A. Part A What is its speed at point B? Express your answer in meters per second.
