Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 34EAP
Comparative Planetology. Roles: Scribe (takes notes on the group’s activities), Proposer (proposes explanations to the group), Skeptic (points out weaknesses in proposed explanations), Moderator (leads group discussion and makes sure everyone contributes). Activity: This chapter advocates learning about how planets work by comparing the planets in general, as opposed to studying the individual planets in great depth. Compare this approach with any previous study you might have made of the planets—for example, in grade school or an earth sciences class—by making a list of advantages and any disadvantages of the comparative approach. Then describe in a few sentences how a comparative approach might be used in a completely different field, such as another branch of science or social science.

17. Two charges, one of charge +2.5 × 10-5 C and the other of charge +3.7 × 10-6 C, are 25.0 cm apart.
The +2.5 × 10−5 C charge is to the left of the +3.7 × 10−6 C charge.
a. Draw a diagram showing the point charges and label a point Y that is 20.0 cm to the left of the
+3.7 × 10-6 C charge, on the line connecting the charges. (Field lines do not need to be drawn.)
b. Calculate the net electric field at point Y.
