A particle with charge +1nC (a nanocoulomb is 1X10-9C) is located at the origin. What is the electric field due to this particle at a location ?
In Figure 13.66 a proton at location A makes an electric field at location B. A different proton, placed at location B, experiences a force . Now the proton at B is removed and replaced by a lithium nucleus, containing three protons and four neutrons. (a) Now what is the value of the electric field at location B due to the proton? (b) What is the force on the lithium nucleus? (c) The lithium nucleus is removed, and an electron is placed at location B. Now what is the value of the electric field at location B due to the proton? (d) What is the magnitude of the force on the electron? (e) Which arrow in Figure 13.65 best indicates the direction of the force on the electron due to the electric field?
