GO Figure 21-35 shows electrons 1 and 2 on an x axis and charged ions 3 and 4 of identical charge −q and at identical angles θ. Electron 2 is free to move; the other three particles are fixed in place at horizontal distances R from electron 2 and are intended to hold electron 2 in place. For physically possible values of q ≤ 5e, what are the (a) smallest, (b) second smallest, and (c) third smallest values of θ for which electron 2 is held in place?

- The figure shows a proton (p) on the central axis through a disk with a uniform charge density due to excess electrons. Three of those electrons are shown: ec at the disk center and electrons es at opposite sides of the disk, at radius R = 1.49 cm from the center. The proton is initially at distance z = R = 1.49 cm from the disk. At that location, what are the magnitudes of (a) the electric field E→c due to the electron ec and (b) the net electric field E→s,net due to electrons es? The proton is then moved to z = R/10.0. What then are the magnitudes of (c)E→c and (d) E→s,net? Note that the magnitude of E→c increases while the magnitude of E→s,net decreases.arrow_forwardA charged nonconducting rod has a length L of 2.0 m and a cross-sectional area A of 8.0 cm?; it is placed along the positive side of an x axis with one end at the origin. The volume charge density p is the charge per unit volume, with the units of coulomb per cubic meter. a) How many excess electrons are on the rod if the rod's volume charge density pu is uniform with a value of –10 µC/m³? How does that compare to the total number of electrons you would estimate would be in the rod? (By compare, just a ballpark estimate- to within several orders of magnitude, factors of ten). b) What is an expression for the number of excess electrons on the rod if the rod's volume charge is nonuniform and is given instead by pN=ax³ where a is a constant? c) What value of a is necessary for the rod in part b to have the same number of excess electrons as the rod in part a)?arrow_forward(a) Figure (a) shows a nonconducting rod of length L = 5.80 cm and uniform linear charge density λ = +4.87 pC/m.

An electron is released at the opening of the tunnel and begins to move, speeding up towards the center of sphere. After it passes the center of the sphere, it begins to slow down until it reaches the other end of the tunnel and stops. The electron then moves back up to the first opening and start the cycle again. It repeats this cycle many times. Find the frequency of this cyclic motion.arrow_forward
