- The three charged particles in Figure P20.11 are at the vertices of an isosceles triangle (where d = 2.00 cm). Taking q = 7.00 C, calculate the electric potential at point A, the midpoint of the base. Figure P20.11arrow_forwardA particle with charge 1.60 1019 C enters midway between two charged plates, one positive and the other negative. The initial velocity of the particle is parallel to the plates and along the midline between them (Fig. P26.48). A potential difference of 300.0 V is maintained between the two charged plates. If the lengths of the plates are 10.0 cm and they are separated by 2.00 cm, find the greatest initial velocity for which the particle will not be able to exit the region between the plates.
