What are the electric fields at points 1, 2, and 3 in FIGURE P22.63? Give your answer in component form.

Two protons are 2.0 fm apart.
a. What is the magnitude of the electric force on one proton due to the other proton?
b. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force on one proton due to the other proton?
c. What is the ratio of the electric force to the gravitational force.
Charges A and B in FIGURE Q22.14 are equal. Each charge exerts a force on the other of magnitude F. Suppose the charge of B is increased by a factor of 4, but everything else is unchanged. In terms of F,
(a) what is the magnitude of the force on A, and
(b) what is the magnitude of the force on B?

Linear accelerator uses alternating electric fields to accelerate electrons to close to the speed of light. A small number of the electrons collide with a target, but a large majority pass through the target and impact a beam dump at the end of the accelerator. In one experiment the beam dump measured charge accumulating at a rate of -2.0 nC/s. How many electrons traveled down the accelerator during the 2.0 h run?
What is the net electric force on charge in FIGURE?
