A disk with radius R and uniform positive charge density σ lies horizontally on a tabletop. A small plastic sphere with mass M and positive charge Q hovers motionless above the center of the disk, suspended by the Coulomb repulsion due to the charged disk. What is the z-component of the net force on the sphere as a function of the height z above the disk? The z-axis points upward and its origin is at the level of the disk. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables R, σ, M, Q, z, the acceleration due to gravity g, and the electric constant epsilon_0.
An infinitely long cylinder in free space is concentric with the z-axis and has radius a. The net charge density p in this cylinder is given in cylindrical coordinates by, 1 a² +r² where A is a constant. (a) Show that the total charge per unit length, λ in the cylinder is λ = πA ln 2. p(r) = A- Hint: you may find the following integral useful. 1 2 J for r a) and inside the cylinder (r< a). (d) The cylinder is composed of a material in which the polarisation P is given by P = P₁² in (1 +5²) e₁₁ er, r where Po is a constant. Determine the bound charge density pb in the cylinder. Hence, or otherwise, determine a relation between A and Po such that the free charge density of in the cylinder vanishes.
a small, nonconducting ball of mass m = 1.2 mg and charge q = 1.5 × 10-8 C (distributed uniformly through its volume) hangs from an insulating thread that makes an angle θ = 30° with a vertical, uniformly charged nonconducting sheet (shown in cross section). Considering the gravitational force on the ball and assuming the sheet extends far vertically and into and out of the page, calculate the surface charge density σ of the sheet.
