Two particles each with charge +2.14

Expert Solution

Electric potential for a particle charge, as in this exercise, is given by:

For this case, there are two charges with equal charge located at -1 m and 1 m. The question is what will be the electric potential on a point y = 0.350 m. This electric potential exists because of the two charges, which will generate an electric field and will generate an energy by charge. This last thing is what it is about. So, this magnitude is scalar, which means that we can add them easily:

distances between charges and the point y, are the same:

. Replace those values and obtain V, electric potential.

Now if at a point in space you place a charge, this charge will have electric potential energy, which is diferent from electric potential. This energy can be transformed to kinetic energy, making the charge to move. This is a characteristic of electric forces with stationary charges, energy can be stored as potential energy. This energy can be written for point charges as:

where , , and

That's it! ;) I hope it is understandable. Good luck!

a.) Two identical particles of charge 3 μμC and mass 6 μμg are initially at rest and held 3 cm apart. How fast will the particles move when they are allowed to repel and separate to very large (essentially infinite) distance? b) Now suppose that the two particles have the same charges from the previous problem, but their masses are different. One particle has mass 6 μμg as before, but the other one is heavier, with a mass of 48...

Consider two charged particles that lay on the x-axis. Particle 1 (with charge +q) sits at location (d, 0, 0). Particle 2 (with charge -2q) sits at location (-d, 0, 0). Find the electric field as a function of the angle (θ) measured from the x-axis for all points in the x-y plane that are a distance (2d) away from the origin. (i.e. all the points on the circle with radius 2d).
