In Problems 63 through 66 you are given the equation(s) used to solve a problem. For each of these

a. Write a realistic problem for which this is the correct equation(s).

b. Finish the solution of the problem

(9.0×109Nm2/C2)(2.0×10-9C)s(0.025m)3=1150N/C

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) A dipole with charge ±q(2×10-9C)and a distance sbetween them.

At a distance of 0.025mfrom the dipole, the electric field is 1150N/C.

In a dipole, what is the charge separation?

(b) The solution is1mm

Step by step solution

01

Given information and formula used

Given :

(9.0×109Nm2/C2)(2.0×10-9C)s(0.025m)3=1150N/C

Theory used :

Anelectric dipole deals with the separation of the positive and negative charges found in any electromagnetic system.

02

Writing a realistic problem and finding the solution of the problem

(a) Realistic problem :

A dipole with charge ±q(2×10-9C)and a distance sbetween them.

At a distance of 0.025mfrom the dipole, the electric field is 1150N/C.

In a dipole, what is the charge separation?

(b) We can safely assume that r>>s.

1150N/C=(9.0×109Nm2/C2)(2.0×10-9C)s(0.025m)3s=(1150N/C)((0.025m)3(9.0×109Nm2/C2)(2.0×10-9C)=1×10-3m=1mm

A small segment of wire in FIGURE Q23.4contains 10nCof charge.

a. The segment is shrunk to one-third of its original length. What is the ratio of λf/λi, where λiandλf are the initial and final linear charge densities?

b. A proton is very far from the wire. What is the ratio Ff /Fi of the electric force on the proton after the segment is shrunk to the force before the segment was shrunk?

c. Suppose the original segment of wire is stretched to 10 times its original length. How much charge must be added to the wire to keep the linear charge density unchanged?

A point charge Q¯is distance r from a dipole consisting of charges±qseparated by distance sT e dipole is initially oriented so that Q is in the plane bisecting the dipole. Immediately after the dipole is released, what are (a) the magnitude of the force and (b) the magnitude of the torque on the dipole? You can assume

You’ve been assigned the task of determining the magnitude and direction of the electric field at a point in space. Give a step-by-step procedure of how you will do so. List any objects you will use, any measurements you will make, and any calculations you will need to perform. Make sure that your measurements do not disturb the charges that are creating the field.

Derive Equation 23.11for the field Edipolein the plane that bisects an electric dipole.

The surface charge density on an infinite charged plane is -2.0×10-6C/m2 . A proton is shot straight away from the plane at 2.0×106m/s. How far does the proton travel before reaching its turning point?
