(a) If Earth had a uniform surface charge density of 1.0 electron/m2 (a very artificial assumption), what would its potential be? (Set V= 0 at infinity.) What would be the (b) magnitude and (c) direction (radially inward or outward) of the electric field due to Earth just outside its surface?
What total (excess) charge q must the disk in Fig. have for the electric field on the surface of the disk at its center to have magnitude 3.0 ×108 N/C, the E value at which air breaks down electrically, producing sparks? Take the disk radius as 2.5 cm. (b) Suppose each surface atom has an effective cross-sectional area of 0.015 nm2. How many atoms are needed to make up the disk surface? (c) The charge calculated in (a) results from some of the surface atoms having one excess electron. What fraction of these atoms must be so charged?

b) In the ALPHA antihydrogen experiment at CERN, the antiprotons travel tothe experiment down a beam pipe. We need to reduce their energy so we can combinethem with positrons to make antihydrogen. The antiprotons are introduced to a regionwith a 1 kV potential difference between the ends. How much energy is lost by eachantiproton in the beam? How much energy would an alpha particle (a bare heliumnucleus) gain if it was accelerated through this potential difference? Why does theantiproton lose energy but the alpha particle gains energy when in a region with sucha potential difference across it?
