FIGURE shows a thin rod of length Lwith total charge Q. Find an expression for the electric fieldE→ at point P. Give your answer in component form.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Electrical field in component form,E=Q4πϵon×1n2+L2i-Q4πϵoLn1-nn2-L2j^

Step by step solution

01

Electrical charge

A fundamental feature of matter held by some constituent particles that affects how the particles react to an external magnetic field Positive and negative electric charge exists in separate natural units and cannot be manufactured or destroyed.

02

Evaluate the field

At point, take a small amount of energy due to the axis charge electrical field.

Ey=14πϵo×QLdy×yn2+y23/2

Applying Integration to the equation,

Ey=14πϵo×QL∫0Lydyn2+y23/2

Substituting the limits;

Ey=Q4πϵoL-1n2+y2

Ey=Q4πϵoL-1n2+L2+1n

Ey=-Q4πϵo2n1-n2L2+L2j^

03

Explain by diagram

Applying the equation,

En=Ecosθ

cosθ=nn2+y2

En=14πϵo×Q2×dy×nn2+y23/2

Applying Integration,

En=14πϵo×QLn∫0Ldyn2+y23/2

Substituting the limits value,

En=Q4πϵo×1nn2+L2i^

E=E→n+E→y

Applying the vectors value,we get

E=Q4πϵon×1n2+L2i-Q4πϵoLn1-nn2-L2j^

One type of ink-jet printer, called an electrostatic ink-jet printer, forms the letters by using deflecting electrodes to steer charged ink drops up and down vertically as the ink jet sweeps horizontally across the page. The ink jet forms30μm diameter drops of ink, charges them by spraying 800,000 electrons on the surface, and shoots them toward the page at a speed of 20m/s. Along the way, the drops pass through two horizontal, parallel electrodes that are 6.0mmlong,4.0mm wide, and spaced 1.0mm apart. The distance from the center of the electrodes to the paper is 2.0cm. To form the tallest letters, which have a height of 6.0mm, the drops need to be deflected upward (or downward) by 3.0mm. What electric field strength is needed between the electrodes to achieve this deflection? Ink, which consists of dye particles suspended in alcohol, has a density of 800kg/m3 .

Two10cmdiameter charged rings face each other,20cmapart. The left ring is charged to-20nCand the right ring is charged to+20nc.

a. What is the electric fieldE→, both magnitude and direction, at the midpoint between the two rings?

b. What is the force on a proton at the midpoint?

A 12-cmlong thin rod has the nonuniform charge density λ(x)=(2.0nC/cm)e-|x|/(6.0cm), where localid="1648623923714" xis measured from the center of the rod. What is the total charge on the rod?

Hint: This exercise requires an integration. Think about how to handle the absolute value sign.

A sphere of radius Rand surface charge density ηis positioned with its center distance 2R from an infinite plane with surface charge density η. At what distance from the plane, along a line toward the center of the sphere, is the electric field zero?

What are the strength and direction of the electric field at the position indicated by the dot in FIGURE P23.35? Give your answer (a) in component form and (b) as a magnitude and angle measured cw or ccw (specify which) from the positive x-axis.
