Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the electric field strengths E1 to E5 at the five points inFIGURE Q23.11. Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The rank in order, from largest to smallest, the electric field strengthsE1 to E5 at the five points is E1=E2=E3=E4=E5

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Given the electric field strengths

02

Explanation

Since an electric field Eis a vector quantity Ehas both magnitude and direction.

For the present scenario, Eis constant everywhere between the two plates.

This is specified by E, which are all of the same length and in the same direction.

E1=E2=E3=E4=E5

A parallel-plate capacitor has 2.0cm×2.0cmelectrodes with surface charge densities ±1.0×106C/m2. A proton traveling parallel to the electrodes at 1.0×106m/s enters the center of the gap between them. By what distance has the proton been deflected sideways when it reaches the far edge of the capacitor? Assume the field is uniform inside the capacitor and zero outside the capacitor.

A20cm×20cmhorizontal metal electrode is uniformly charged to +80nC. What is the electric field strength 2.0mmabove the center of the electrode?

The ozone molecule O3 has a permanent dipole moment of 11.8×10-30Cm. Although the molecule is very slightly bent— which is why it has a dipole moment—it can be modeled as a uniform rod of length 2.5×10-10m with the dipole moment perpendicular to the axis of the rod. Suppose an ozone molecule is in a 5000N/C uniform electric field. In equilibrium, the dipole moment is aligned with the electric field. But if the molecule is rotated by a small angle and released, it will oscillate back and forth in simple harmonic motion. What is the frequency f of oscillation?

A parallel-plate capacitor consists of two square plates, size L×L, separated by distance d. The plates are given charge±Q. What is the ratio Ef/Eiof the final to initial electric field strengths if

(a) Q is doubled,

(b)L is doubled, and

(c) d is doubled? Each part changes only one quantity; the other quantities have their initial values

A parallel-plate capacitor is formed from two 6.0-cm-diameter electrodes spaced 2.0mmapart. The electric field strength inside the capacitor is 1.0×106N/C. What is the charge (in nC ) on each electrode?
