An airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 1650 m. (Flying at this height is very dangerous because of updrafts, turbulence, and the possibility of electric discharge.) If there are charge concentrations of +40.0 C at a height of 3050 m within the cloud and -40.0 C at a height of 1000 m, what is the electric field at the aircraft? (Give the magnitude and direction.)

A very long straight wire has charge per unit length 1.55×10−10 C/mC/m .
At what distance from the wire is the magnitude of the electric field equal to 2.46 N/CN/C ?
Use 8.85×10−12 C2/(N⋅m2)C2/(N⋅m2) for the permittivity of free space, and use π=3.14159π=3.14159.
A horizontal electron beam consists of electrons moving at 2000 m/s through two parallel, horizontal plates that are 0.01 m long and generate a uniform and constant 0.5 N/C electric field that points upward. What is the vertical component of the electron's velocity upon exiting the field in m/s? Assume the plate separation is sufficient that you do not need to worry about the electrons hitting the plate.
