What is the strength of the electric field in a region where the electric potential is constant?
What is the capacitance of a large Van de Graaff generator's terminal, given that it stores \(8.00{\rm{ }}mC\)of charge at a voltage of \(12.0{\rm{ }}MV\)?
Two parallel conducting plates are separated by \(10.0{\rm{ }}cm\), and one of them is taken to be at zero volts. (a) What is the electric field strength between them, if the potential \(8.00{\rm{ }}cm\) from the zero-volt plate (and \(2.00{\rm{ }}cm\) from the other) is \(450{\rm{ }}V\)? (b) What is the voltage between the plates?
Figure \({\rm{19}}{\rm{.28}}\) shows the electric field lines near two charges \(q1\) and \(q2\) , the first having a magnitude four times that of the second. Sketch the equipotential lines for these two charges, and indicate the direction of increasing potential.

A battery-operated car utilizes a 12.0 V system. Find the charge the batteries must be able to move in order to accelerate the 750 kg car from rest to 25.0 m/s, make it climb a 2.00 x 102 m high hill, and then cause it to travel at a constant 25.0 m/s by exerting a 5.00 x 102 N force for an hour.
