Presentation Transcript
Calculate the electric force on a 16 nC charge placed 3 m from a 1.5 µC charge.
A +4C charge and a -17C charge are located 8 m apart. Calculate the net electric field midway between them. • Calculate the charge on an object that experiences a 5 N force toward the +4C charge when placed at that point.
A proton released from rest 15 m from a point charge begins to accelerate away at 6 m/s2 . What is the electric field at the proton’s location? • What is the charge of the point charge?
The same proton released from rest in a uniform electric field accelerates north at 35 m/s2. What is the strength and direction of the electric field? • If the proton remains in the field, what will be the force on it after it has moved 2 m north?
