What are the strength and direction of the electric field at the position indicated by the dot in FIGUREEX23.3?Specify the direction as an angle above or below horizontal.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The strength of the electric field is 7.63×103V/m.

Step by step solution

01

Angle of electric field diagram

Figure is,

02

Calculation for magnitude of E1

The electric field's magnitude is,

E=E2cosθ-E1cosθi-E2sinθ+E1sinθj

E1:

E1=KQ1AB2

E1=9×109N3.0×10-9C(52cm)2

E1=5.4×103V/m

03

Calculation for magnitude of E2

E2:

E2=KQ2BC2

E2=9×109N3.0×10-9C(52cm)2

E2=5.4×103V/m

ΔABC,sinθ=cosθ=12

So,

localid="1649136637521" E=E2cosθ-E1cosθi-E2sinθ+E1sinθj

E=(0)i-2×5.4×103V/m×12j

E=7.63×103V/mj

A small object is released at point 3in the center of the capacitor in FIGURE Q23.11. For each situation, does the object move to the right, to the left, or remain in place? If it moves, does it accelerate or move at constant speed?

a. A positive object is released from rest.

b. A neutral but polarizable object is released from rest.

c. A negative object is released from rest.

A proton orbits a long charged wire, making 1.0×106 revolutions per second. The radius of the orbit is 1.0cm. What is the wire’s linear charge density?

One type of ink-jet printer, called an electrostatic ink-jet printer, forms the letters by using deflecting electrodes to steer charged ink drops up and down vertically as the ink jet sweeps horizontally across the page. The ink jet forms30μm diameter drops of ink, charges them by spraying 800,000 electrons on the surface, and shoots them toward the page at a speed of 20m/s. Along the way, the drops pass through two horizontal, parallel electrodes that are 6.0mmlong,4.0mm wide, and spaced 1.0mm apart. The distance from the center of the electrodes to the paper is 2.0cm. To form the tallest letters, which have a height of 6.0mm, the drops need to be deflected upward (or downward) by 3.0mm. What electric field strength is needed between the electrodes to achieve this deflection? Ink, which consists of dye particles suspended in alcohol, has a density of 800kg/m3 .
