We found that the force exerted on a distant charged objectby a dipole is given byFonQbydipole≈Q(14πε02qsr3) . In this equation, what is the meaning of the symbols q, Q, s, and r?

Short Answer

Expert verified

q: is the magnitude of the charge that form the dipole,Q: is the charged object, s: the distance between(+q&−q) that forms the dipole, r: the distance between the charged object and the centre of the dipole.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data

The given equation is,

FonQbydipole≈Q(14πε02qsr3)

02

Determination of the symbols

q: is the magnitude of the charge that form the dipole. (Source of the field)

Q: is the charged object or the charge that will be affected by the filed.

S: the distance between (+q & −q)that forms the dipole.

r: the distance between the charged object and the centre of the dipole.

03

Result

q: is the magnitude of the charge that form the dipole,Q: is the charged object, s: the distance between(+q&−q) that forms the dipole, r: the distance between the charged object and the centre of the dipole.

If we triple the distance d, by what factor is the force on the point charge due to the dipole in Figure 13.60 reduced? (Note that the factor is smaller than one if the force is reduced and larger than one if the force is increased.)

The electric field at a particular location is measured to be <0,-280,0>N/C. What force would a positron experience if placed at this particular location?

2 In the region shown in Figure 13.64 there is an electric field due to charged objects not shown in the diagram. A tiny glass ball with a charge of5×10-9Cplaced at location A experiences a force of(4×10-5,-4×105,0)N, as shown in the figure. (a) Which arrow in Figure 13.65 best indicates the direction of the electric field at location A? (b) What is the electric field at location A? (c) What is the magnitude of this electric field?

Which arrow in Figure 13.65 best indicates the direction of the electric force on the negatively charged plastic ball? (e) What is the force on the negative plastic ball? (f) You discover that the source of the electric field at location A is a negatively charged particle. Which of the numbered locations in Figure 13.64 shows the location of this negatively charged particle, relative to location A?

At a particular location in the room there is an electric field <1000,0,0> N/C. Where would you place a single negative point particle of charge 1μCin order to produce this electric field?
