In Fig. 24-70, point P is at the center of the rectangle. With V=0at infinity, q1=5.00fC , q2=2.00fC , q3=3.00fC, andd=2.54cm, what is the net electric potential at P due to the six charged particles?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Total potential at the point P is 3.3410-4V .

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given data:

Convert the units of charge from fCto C.

The charge,

q1=5 fC=5 fC10-15C1.0 fC=510-15C

The charge,

q2=2 fC=2 fC10-15C1.0 fC=210-15C

The charge,

role="math" localid="1662443184850" q3=3 fC=3 fC10-15C1.0 fC=310-15C

Convert the units of distance from cmto m.

role="math" localid="1662443206369" d=2.54cm=2.54cm1.0m100cm=0.0254m

02

Determining the concept:

Potential at a point due to a charge q is given as,

V=14蟺蔚0qr

Here, r is the distance of the point from the charge and14蟺蔚0is the Coulomb constant.

Schematic diagram of the system of charges due to which the charge has to be identified is drawn below.

The total potential at the point Pis the sum of the potentials due to each charge.

Formula:

The electric potential is define by,

V=14oqR=kqR

Where, Vis potential energy, R is distance between the point charges, qis charge, and k is the Coulomb鈥檚 constant having a value 9109Nm2/C2.

03

Determining the net electric potential at P:

The total potential at point Pdue to given system of charges is,

V=140q1d2+d22-q2d2-q3d2+d22+q3d2+d22-q2d2+q1d2+d22=1402q1d2+d22-4q2d

Substitute known values in the above equation.

V=9109Nm2/C22510-15C0.0254m2+0.0254m22-4210-15C0.0254m

role="math" localid="1662444909542" =9109Nm2/C21010-15C0.00064516+0.00016129m-810-15C0.0254

=9109Nm2/C21010-15C0.0284m-314.96110-15C/m

=9109Nm2/C2352.11310-15C/m-314.96110-15C/m

V=9109Nm2/C237.15210-15C/m

=334.36810-6V

=3.3410-4V

Hence, the total potential at the point Pis 3.3410-4V.
