4. I've assembled the following assortment of point charges (-4 μC, +6 μC, and +3 μC)
into a rectangle, bringing them together from an initial situation where they were all
an infinite distance away from each other. Find the electric potential at point "A"
(marked by the X) and tell me how much work it would require to bring a +10.0 μC
charge to point A if it started an infinite distance away (assume that the other three
charges remains fixed).

5. It's Friday night, and you've got big party plans. What will you do? Why, make a
capacitor, of course! You use aluminum foil as the plates, and since a standard roll of
aluminum foil is 30.5 cm wide you make the plates of your capacitor each 30.5 cm by
30.5 cm. You separate the plates with regular paper, which has a thickness of 0.125
mm and a dielectric constant of 3.7. What is the capacitance of your capacitor? If
you connect it to a 12 V battery, how much charge is stored on either plate?

Learning Goal:
To understand the meaning and the basic applications of
pV diagrams for an ideal gas.
As you know, the parameters of an ideal gas are
described by the equation
pV = nRT,
where p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of
the gas, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas
constant, and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. It
follows that, for a portion of an ideal gas,
PV
T
=
constant.
One can see that, if the amount of gas remains constant,
it is impossible to change just one parameter of the gas:
At least one more parameter would also change. For
instance, if the pressure of the gas is changed, we can
be sure that either the volume or the temperature of the
gas (or, maybe, both!) would also change.
To explore these changes, it is often convenient to draw a
graph showing one parameter as a function of the other.
Although there are many choices of axes, the most
common one is a plot of pressure as a function of
volume: a pV diagram.
