Textbook Question

Chapter 19, Problem 18PCE

Five point charges, q₁ = +q, q₂ = +2q q₃ = −3q, q₄ = −4q, and q₅ = −5q, are placed in the vicinity of an insulating spherical shell with a charge +Q distributed uniformly over its surface, as indicated in Figure 19-39. Rank the point charges in order of increasing magnitude of the force exerted on them by the sphere. Indicate ties where appropriate.

Four identical metal spheres have charges of qA = -8.0 μC, qb=-2.0 μC, qc=+5.0 µC, and qp=+12.0 µC. (a) Two of the spheres are brought together so they touch, and then they are separated. Which spheres are they, if the final charge on each one is +5.0 μC? A and C V (b) In a similar manner, which three spheres are brought together and then separated, if the final charge on each of the three is +3.0 µC? A+B+D B+C+D A+B+D A+C+D A+B+C N = Number harge on each of the three separated spheres in part (b) is +3.0 µC.

QUESTION: Positive charge Q is distributed uniformly along the positive y-axis between y=0 and y=ay. A negative point charge −q lies on the positive x-axis, a distance x from the origin. Part ACalculate the x-component of the electric field produced by the charge distribution Q at points on the positive x-axis. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables Q, x, y, a, and constant k. *So I took this and I was able to get: kq/r^(2) then r = C in a^2+b^2=c^2. replace r, you get cos(x/(sqrt(x^(2)+y^(2). From that I am lost besides sec(T) = 1/sqrt(x^2+y^2) What needs to be done after this to calculate an intergul?

A sphere of radius R is charged with total charge -2g distributed uniformly inside the sphere's volume (p = constant). In addition to the volume charge, there are also two point charges q inside the sphere, both on the x axis, at identical distances from the center, d (see figure). y -29 R q q 6 d d x What should be the value of d so that both point charges would be at equilibrium? Select one: O a. d= ○ b. d = R2R 23 О с. d = 2 ○ d. d = R Ꭱ ○ e. d = RRRL 4 Ꭱ
