Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.

22.51 • CALC A Nonuniformly Charged Slab. A slab of insulating
material has thickness 2d and is oriented so that its faces are par-
allel to the yz-plane and given by the planes x = d and x = -d.
The y- and z-dimensions of the slab are very large compared to
d, so treat them as infinite. The slab has charge density given by
P(x) = Po(x/d), where po is a positive constant. Using Gauss's law,
find the electric field due to the slab (magnitude and direction) at all
points in space.

Ra1 +9 -9 Rea Consider two concentric spherical conductors, separated by an isolating material with (absolute) permittivity e. The two conductors have radius R1 and R2, they are put on a potential V and V2, which leads to a charge +q and –q sitting on them, respectively. By the problem's spherical symmetry, we see that the charge on each conductor is distributed uniformly, and that, in spherical coordinates, the electric field between the two conductors is of the form E(r) = -E(r) er. Determine the capacity C using the following steps: 1. Use Gauss's Law in integral form, with N a ball of radius r (R2 < r < R1), to find an expression for E(r) in terms of q. 2. Calculate AV = Vị – V2 using the formula - E•dr Δν and with C the black line segment indicated on the drawing (parallel with e,). 3. The capacity now follows from C = q/AV.
