Two charges 20Cand+2.0C are separated by 4.0 cm on the z-axis symmetrically about origin, with the positive one uppermost. Two space points of interest and P1andP2 are located 3.0 cm and 30 cm from origin at an angle 30 with respect to the z-axis. Evaluate electric potentials at P1andP2 and in two ways: (a) Using the exact formula for point charges, and (b) rising the approximate dipole potential formula.
Your friend gets really excited by the idea of making a lightning rod or maybe just a sparking toy by connecting two spheres as shown in Figure 7.39, and making R2so small that the electric field is greater than the dielectric strength of air, just from the usual 150 V/m electric field near the surface of the Earth. If R1is 10 cm. how small does R2to be, and does this seem practical? (Hint: recall the calculation for electric field at the surface of a conductor from Gauss's Law.)
It is shown in Example 24.7 that the potential at a point P a distance a above one end of a uniformly charged rod of length lying along the x axis is V=keQlln(l+a2+l2a) Use this result to derive an expression for the y component of the electric field at P.
