Figure EX26.12 is a graph of Vversusx. Draw the corresponding graph of Exversusx.

Short Answer

Expert verified

We've drawn the required graph with slopes5000V/mand-5000V/m

Step by step solution

01

Given information and theory used  

Given :

Theory used :

The electric field is expressed as a function of potential as :

E(x)=-dV(x)dx

02

Drawing the corresponding graph of Ex versus x. 

The potential graph in our situation consists of two lines. As a result, the derivative will be a constant, namely the line's slope. The slopes can be seen to be steep.

5000V/mand-5000V/mare the slopes when drawing the graph. As a result, our graph would look like this:

a. Find an expression for the capacitance of a spherical capacitor, consisting of concentric spherical shells of radii R1(inner shell) and R2(outer shell).

b. A spherical capacitor with a 1.0mmgap between the shells has a capacitance of 100pF. What are the diameters of the two spheres?

An ideal parallel-plate capacitor has a uniform electric field between the plates, zero-field outside. By superposition, half the field strength is due to one plate and a half due to the other.

a. The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are oppositely charged and attract each other. Find an expression in terms of C,∆Vcand the plate separation dfor the force one plate exerts on the other.

b. What is the attractive force on each plate of a 100pFcapacitor with a plate spacing when1.0mmcharged to 1000V?

The parallel-plate capacitor in Figure Q26.11 is connected to a battery having potential difference ∆Vbat. Without breaking any of the connections, insulating handles are used to increase the plate separation to 2d.

a. Does the potential difference ∆VCchange as the separation increases? If so, by what factor? If not, why not?

b. Does the capacitance change? If so, by what factor? If not, why not?

c. Does the capacitor charge Qchange? If so, by what factor? If not, why not?

The two metal spheres in Figure Q26.9 are connected by a metal wire with a switch in the middle. Initially the switch is open. Sphere 1, with the larger radius, is given a positive charge. Sphere 2, with the smaller radius, is neutral. Then the switch is closed. Afterward, sphere 1 has charge Q1, is at potential V1, and the electric field strength at its surface is E1. The values for sphere 2 are Q2,V2,andE2.

a. Is V1larger than, smaller than, or equal to V2? Explain.

b. Is Q1larger than, smaller than, or equal to Q2? Explain.

c. Is E1 larger than, smaller than, or equal to E2? Explain.
