Two identical circular planar surface charges float in free space (permittivity €0). The surface charge density is constant over the disk pso (with units As/m²) for both disks. The disks are separated by distance 'a'. Let's fix the coordinate system such that the upper disk is on the xy plane (z = 0) and its center lies on the origin. The lower plate is on the xy plane (z = −a). The goal is to find the expression for electric scalar potential at the symmetry axis (z) between the two disks. a Ps0 Ps0 Z S O A b (a) Determine the scalar potential V(z) at the z axis in between the two disks. Re- member that you need to integrate the effect of all charge in the disk. (Since there are two disks you will need superposition. The cylindrical coordinate sys- tem should be helpful.)

Suppose a capacitor consists of two coaxial thin cylindrical conductors. The inner cylinder of radius ra has a charge of +Q, while the outer cylinder of radius rp has charge -Q. The electric field E at a radial distance r from the central axis is given by the function: E = aer/ao + B/r + bo %| where alpha (a), beta (B), ao and bo are constants. Find an expression for its capacitance. First, let us derive the potential difference Vab between the two conductors. The potential difference is related to the electric field by: Va Edr= Edr Calculating the antiderivative or indefinite integral, Vab = (-aaoe-r/ao + B + bo By definition, the capacitance C is related to the charge and potential difference by: C = Evaluating with the upper and lower limits of integration for Vab, then simplifying: C = Q/( (e-"b/ao - era/ao) + B In( ) + bo ( ))
Suppose you design an apparatus in which a uniformly charged disk of radius R is to produce an electric field. The field magnitude is most important along the central perpendicular axis of the disk, at a point Pat distance 2.90R from the disk (see Figure (a)). Cost analysis suggests that you switch to a ring of the same outer radius R but with inner radius R/2.90 (see Figure (b)). Assume that the ring will have the same surface charge density as the original disk. If you switch to the ring, by what part will you decrease the electric field magnitude at P?

Early in the 20th century, a leading model of the structure of the atom was that of English physicist J. J. Thomson (the discoverer of the electron). In Thomson’s model, an atom consisted of a sphere of positively charged material in which were embedded negatively charged electrons, like chocolate chips in a ball of cookie dough. Consider such an atom consisting of one electron with mass m and charge -e, which may be regarded as a point charge, and a uniformly charged sphere of charge +e and radius R. By that time time, it was known that excited atoms emit light waves of only certain frequencies. In his model, the frequency of emitted light is the same as the oscillation frequency of the electron (s) problems in the atom. What radius (in millimeter) would a Thomson-model atom need for it to produce red light of frequency 4.57 x 1014 Hz? (Don't express your answer in scientific notation)
