Fields and forces question Two charged metal spheres are placed in a row, as shown below. Points A and B are along the same line. One sphere has charge +0.5C and the other charge -0.5C. (a) What is the electric field at points A and B? Remember, electric field is a vector! (2 Marks) (b) What is the electric potential difference between point A and point B? (2 Marks)

1. The net electric flux passing through a Gaussian surface is found to be positive. Which of the following statements is correct? [A] The net charge outside the surface is positive. [B] The net charge inside the surface is positive. [C] The net charge outside the surface is negative. [D] The net charge inside the surface is negative. 2. An insulating sphere of radius a is uniformly charged with total positive charge Q. An insulating spherical shell is placed around the charged sphere. The shell's inner and outer radii are b and c, and it carries a uniformly distributed net charge -2Q. (a) Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) inside the shell (b<r<c). Begin with a statement of Gauss's Law and indicate in the diagram your choice of Gaussian surfaces. (b) If the outer shell were a conductor instead of an insulator, the electric field inside would be zero (be sure you can justify that statement). If the outer shell were a conductor with a net charge of -2Q, how much charge would be distributed on its inner surface? Use Gauss' Law to justify your answer for the inner surface. How much charge would be distributed on its outer surface? Use conservation of charge to justify your answer for the outer surface.

A surface will be an equipotential surface if: A. the electric charge density is constant everywhere on the surface. B. the electric field is tangent to the surface at all points. C. the electric charge density is zero everywhere on the surface. D. the electric field is perpendicular to the surface at all points. E. the net electric charge is zero on the surface. Two point charges with charge +q are initially separated by a distance d. If you triple the charge on both charges, how far should the charges be separated for the potential energy between them to remain the same?

What is the electric field E at a point 2.40 m from the center of the balloon (in N/C; use a positive sign if E points away from the center and a negative sign if E points toward the center)?

00:02 Solution of this question is using bernoulli's theorem p1 plus 1 by 2 row v1 square plus row g h1 is equal to p2 plus 1 by 2 row v2 square plus row g h2 here p2 minus p1 is equal to 900 pascal row is equal to 1 .3 10 raised to par minus 3 gram per centimeter cube is equal to 1 .3 10 way to par minus 3 gram per centimeter cube is equal to 1 .3 10 to power minus 3 multiplied 10xpah plus 3 kilogram per meter q.
01:57 Clogram multiplied 1010s power 3 kilogram per meter queue.
02:14 So, density in kilogram per meter queue is, can be written as 1 .3, tending power, 103, tending power, plus 3.
02:39 3.
02:41 Klogam per meter cube...
