A charge q = 3.1 µC and of massm = 5.4 x 10¬10 kg is in a uniform electric field of strength E = 1.8 × 10-6 %3D N/C and initially at rest. The charge experiences a force from the electric field in the direction of the field. Calculate the distance (in millimetres) the charge has travelled once it reaches a speed of v = 0.016 m/s. Ignore any other forces such as air resistance. Give your answer to 1 decimal place.

The dome of a Van de Graaff generator receives a charge of 2.0 104 C. Find the strength of the electric field (a) inside the dome, (b) at the surface of the dome, assuming it has a radius of 1.0 m, and (c) 4.0 in front the center of the dome. Hint: See Section 15.5 to review properties of conductors in electrostatic equilibrium. Also, note that the points on the surface are outside a spherically symmetric charge distribution; the total charge may be considered to be located at the center of the sphere.
