In what region of space is the potential due to a uniformly charged sphere the same as that of a point charge? In what region does it differ from that of a point charge?
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.
How far apart are two conducting plates that have an electric field strength of \(4.50 \times {10^3}\;V/m\) between them, if their potential difference is \(15.0kV\)?
Integrated Concepts
A lightning bolt strikes a tree, moving 20.0 C of charge through a potential difference of 1.00 x 102MV.
(a) What energy was dissipated?
(b) What mass of water could be raised fromto the boiling point and then boiled by this energy?
(c) Discuss the damage that could be caused to the tree by the expansion of the boiling steam.
