In a thundercloud, there may be electric charges of +40.0 C near the top of the cloud and 40.0 C near the bottom of the cloud. These charges are separated by 2.00 km. What is the electric force on the top charge?
Using the symmetry of the arrangement, determine the direction of the force on q in the figure below, given that qa=qb=+7.50C and qc = qd = 7.50C. (b) Calculate the magnitude of the force on the charge q, given that the square is 10.0 cm on a side and q = 2.00 C.
If two equal charges each of 1 C each are separated in air by a distance of 1 km, what is the magnitude of the force acting between them? You will see that even at a distance as large as 1 km, the repulsive force is substantial because 1 C is a very significant amount of charge.
What can you say about two charges q1and q2, if the electric field one-fourth of the way from q1to q2is zero?
Refer 10 Figure 15.20. The charge lowered into the center of the hollow conductor has a magnitude of 5 C. Find the magnitude and sign of the charge on the inside and outside of the hollow conductor when the charge is as shown in (a) Figure 15.20a, (b) Figure 15.20b, (c) Figure 15.20c, and (d) Figure 15.20d.
How far apart must two point charges of 75.0 nC (typical of static electricity) be to have a force of 1.00 N between them?
Why do most objects tend to contain nearly equal numbers of positive and negative charges?
Refer 10 Figure 15.20. The charge lowered into the center of the hollow conductor has a magnitude of 5 C. Find the magnitude and sign of the charge on the inside and outside of the hollow conductor when the charge is as shown in (a) Figure 15.20a, (b) Figure 15.20b, (c) Figure 15.20c, and (d) Figure 15.20d.
(a) Common transparent tape becomes charged when pulled from a dispenser. If one piece is placed above another, the repulsive force can be great enough to support the top piece’s weight. Assuming equal point charges (only an approximation), calculate the magnitude of the charge if electrostatic force is great enough to support the weight of a mg piece of tape held 1.00 cm above another. (b) Discuss whether the magnitude of this charge is consistent with what is typical of static electricity.
There are very large numbers of charged particles in most objects. Why, then, don't most objects exhibit static electricity?
