Why do most objects tend to contain nearly equal numbers of positive and negative charges?
Many textbooks claim Franklin decided that moving charged particles are positive. How would you correct this claim? Think about these questions in developing your answer: Did Franklins model include particles? What did the terms positive and negative mean to Franklin?
A positively charged It'd attracts a small piece of cork. (a) Can we conclude that the cork is negatively charged? (b) The rod repels another small piece of cork. Can we conclude that this piece is positively charged?
Cathode ray tubes (CRTs) used in old-style televisions have been replaced by modern LCD and LED screens. Part of the CRT included a set of accelerating plates separated by a distance of about 1.50 cm. If the potential difference across the plates was 25.0 kV, find the magnitude of the electric field in the region between the plates.
If you have charged an electroscope by contact with a positively charged object, describe how you could use it to determine the charge of other objects. Specifically, what would the leaves of the electroscope do if other charged objects were brought near its knob?
A test charge of +3 C is at a point P where an external electric field is directed to the right and has a magnitude of 4 106 N/C. If the test charge is replaced with another test charge of 3 C, what happens to the external electric field at P? (a) It is unaffected. (b) It reverses direction. (c) It changes in a way that cannot be determined.
PHYSICS (Please write the complete solutions legibly. UPVOTE will be given) Three point charges are located on the positive x-axis of a coordinate system. Charge q1 = +1.0nC is 4.0cm from the origin, charge q2 = -3.0nC is 6.0cm from q1 and charge q3 = 5.0nC located at the origin. Solve for the following: a. What is the total force exerted by these three charges on a charge q4 = -4.0nC located midway between q1 and q2? b. If q4 is moved 3cm to the right of q2, what is the total force exerted by these three charges on q4?
Example 1: Compute the electrostatic force of repulsion between two a-particles at a separation of 10-1cm, and compare with the force of gravitational attraction between them.
Situation: Which material that is rubbed with cotton would attract a positively charged human hair. There are 4 candidates, namely: glass, fur, silicon, and acetate. By rubbing the pairs of materials, the signs of the resulting charges were determined. The data is based on the image. Questions: (1) Which of the materials will repel human hair the most? (2) Which of the materials will attract human hair the most? Choices: Fur, Silicon, Glass, Cotton, Acetate
