The electric field in ax-yplane produced by a positively charged particle isat the point (3.0, 3.0) cm andat the point (2.0, 0) cm. What are the (a) xand (b) ycoordinates of the particle? (c) What is the charge of the particle?
The potential energies associated with four orientations of an electric dipole in an electric field are (1), (2), (3), and (4), whereis positive. Rank the orientations according to (a) the angle between the electric dipole momentand the electric fieldand (b) the magnitude of the torque on the electric dipole, greatest first.
Figure 22-33 shows five protons that are launched in a uniform electric field ; the magnitude and direction of the launch velocities are indicated. Rank the protons according to the magnitude of their accelerations due to the field, greatest first.
