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.

Lightning can be studied with a Van de Graaff generator, which consists of a spherical dome on which charge is continuously deposited by a moving belt. Charge can be added until the electric field at the surface of the dome becomes equal to the dielectric strength of air. Any more charge leaks off in sparks as shown in Figure P25.52. Assume the dome has a diameter of 30.0 cm and is surrounded by dry air with a "breakdown" electric field of 3.00 106 V/m. (a) What is the maximum potential of the dome? (b) What is the maximum charge on the dome?
A sphere has a net charge of 8.05 nC, and a negatively charged rod has a charge of 6.03 nC. The sphere and rod undergo a process such that 5.00 109 electrons are transferred from the rod to the sphere. What are the charges of the sphere and the rod after this process?
A proton is fired from very far away directly at a fixed particle with charge q = 1.28 1018 C. If the initial speed of the proton is 2.4 105 m/s, what is its distance of closest approach to the fixed particle? The mass of a proton is 1.67 1027 kg.
The liquid-drop model of the atomic nucleus suggests high-energy oscillations of certain nuclei can split the nucleus into two unequal fragments plus a few neutrons. The fission products acquire kinetic energy from their mutual Coulomb repulsion. Assume the charge is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of each spherical fragment and. immediately before separating each fragment is at rest and their surfaces are in contact. The electrons surrounding the nucleus can be ignored. Calculate the electric potential energy (in electron volts) of two spherical fragments from a uranium nucleus having the following charges and radii: 38e and 5.50 10-15 m. and 54e and 6.20 10-15 m.

Why is the following situation impossible? An electron enters a region of uniform electric field between two parallel plates. The plates are used in a cathode-ray tube to adjust the position of an electron beam on a distant fluorescent screen. The magnitude of the electric field between the plates is 200 N/C. The plates are 0.200 m in length and are separated by 1.50 cm. The electron enters the region at a speed of 3.00 106 m/s, traveling parallel to the plane of the plates in the direction of their length. It leaves the plates heading toward its correct location on the fluorescent screen.

An electroscope is a device used to measure the (relative) charge on an object (Fig. P23.20). The electroscope consists of two metal rods held in an insulated stand. The bent rod is fixed, and the straight rod is attached to the bent rod by a pivot. The straight rod is free to rotate. When a positively charged object is brought close to the electroscope, the straight movable rod rotates. Explain your answers to these questions: a. Why does the rod rotate in Figure P23.20? b. If the positively charged object is removed, what happens to the electroscope? c. If a negatively charged object replaces the positively charged object in Figure P23.20, what happens to the electroscope? d. If a charged object touches the top of the fixed conducting rod and is then removed, what happens to the electroscope?
