3. A small object has charge +1.3 x 10-°C. A certain amount of charge q is removed from it and placed on a second small object. The two objects are placed 1 m apart. For the following two questions, if your answer is “Yes", please determine the value for q; if your answer is “No", please briefly explain the reason. A. If we know q is positive, then can you find what should be q to make the electric force that each object exerts on the other to be a maximum? B. If we do not know whether q is positive or negative, then can you find what should be q to make the electric force that each object exerts o the other to be a maximum?

A positive charge q = 1.5 C moves from A to B as shown. At point A, it has kinetic energy 15 J. What is its kinetic energy at point B, in Joules? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
3. An isolated system consists of two metal spheres, with sphere 2 having twice the radius of sphere 1. Both spheres are initially charged as shown in the initial figure. The two spheres are then brought into contact with each other so that charge, in the form of electrons, is transferred between them. The spheres are then separated as shown in the final figure, where they have unknown charges, q and q2. Since sphere 2 has twice the radius, it will have twice the amount of charge than sphere 1 in the final state. Find q, q and the number of electrons transferred between the spheres. Hint: The net charge of the two-sphere system is conserved, since it is an isolated system. initial electron transfer between spheres final 91 = +12.0 μC 9₁ = ? q2 = -3.00 μC 9₂ = ?

1. The magnitude of an electric field became 3.0 x 106 N/C or greater, so that electrical breakdown and thus sparking could occur. 2. The energy of a spark was 150 mJ or greater so that it could ignite the powder explosively. Let us check for the first condition in the powder flow through the plastic pipes. Suppose a stream of negatively charged powder was blown through a cylindrical pipe of radius R = 5.0 cm. Assume that the powder and its charge were spread uniformly through the pipe with a volume charge density p. a. Using Gauss' law, find an expression for the magnitude of the electric field E in the pipe as a function of radial distance r from the pipe center. b. Does E increase or decrease with increasing r? c. Is E directed radially inward or outward? d. For p = 1.1 x 10³ C/m³ (a typical value at the factory), find the maximum E and determine where that maximum field occurs. e. Could sparking occur, and if so, where? From the answer to part (a) of the problem, f. Find an…
