- A dust particle (M=5.0x108kg) that carries charge Q=8.0x10.6℃ is placed in between two parallel plates that are equally but oppositely charged at a distance of 4.0cm from the (-) plate. The strength of this constant (uniform) electric field is E=12,500 N/C. The P.E. of Q when placed at 4.0cm from (-) plate is exactly equal to the work it can do as it is pushed to the (-) plate. is 0.004J is 400mJ Answeres a, b & c are correct.

- There are two point charges q1=(7.000x10^0) µC and q2=(-3.0000x10^0) µC. q1 is located at origin (0, 0). q2 is located at (4.00x10^0) m,(5.000x10^0) m). Now we place another point charge q3 = (1.0000x10^1) µC at ((4.00x10^0) m, 0), i.e. q3 is right underneath of q2. Please calculated the X-component of the electrostatic force on q3 . Give your answer in the unit of N with 3 sf. Note: Use the sign to represent the direction, for example -2.11x10^-4 means the force is on the negative x direction.arrow_forwardTwo point charges, 3.080E-6 C and -1.183E-6 C, are placed 3.26 cm apart on the x axis.

Use ?k for 14??014πε0 (i.e. ?≡14??0k≡14πε0). Use the following notation (without the quotes): "/" for division, "*" for multiplication, "+" an "-" as usual. For powers used "^2", while for square root use "sqrt". To indicate that square root applies to the whole expression use brackets - for example, for ??‾‾‾‾√AB use sqrt(A*B). For Greek letters such as ?π, ?α etc. use pi, alpha. For example to get 1??2???‾‾‾‾√1πA2BAB use 1/pi*A^2/B*sqrt(AB). Please use the exact variables given in the conditions of the problem: e.g if ?L is given, then do not use ?l.arrow_forward
