A negatively charged ion is initially moving to the right toward a pair of parallel plates, along the straight line that is midway between the plates. One plate has a positive charge, and the other has a negative charge of equal magnitude. As the ion approaches the plates, it follows the path shown by the dashed line. Gravitational effects are negligible. Which of the following correctly ranks the magnitude of the electric force FF exerted on the ion by the field at the four labeled points?

Four charged spheres are located at the positions indicated in the diagram. The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is the same. The two spheres on the right have a positive charge, and the two spheres on the left have a negative charge. Three points AA, BB, and CC are also indicated in the diagram. Students measure the electric potential as a function of position xx along the horizontal line through point CC. Their data is shown in the table.

A point charge of −q−q is located at (x,0)(x,0), and a point charge of +q+q is located at (−x,0)(−x,0), as shown.

Two spheres of mass MM and 2M2M are located a distance dd apart, as shown. A set of gravitational equipotential lines can be associated with the spheres. If the spheres are also charged, for which of the following pairs of charges will the electric equipotential lines have a shape and pattern most similar to the gravitational equipotential lines?

Four charged spheres are located at the positions indicated in the diagram. The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is the same. The two spheres on the right have a positive charge, and the two spheres on the left have a negative charge. Three points AA, BB, and CC are also indicated in the diagram. A small positive test charge is initially located at a point far to the right of the arrangement at x=+∞x=+∞ and y=4cmy=4cm, which is the same vertical height as point BB. The test charge can be moved horizontally from x=+∞x=+∞ to either x=8cmx=8cm or to x=0cmx=0cm. Which of the following indicates the final destination that would require more positive work to be done on the charge, and the reason more work done?

Moving the charge to x=8cmx=8cm would require more work. The final position is at a higher electric potential.

The figure shows a large positively charged metal plate and a small positively charged sphere on an insulating stick. Students measure the electric field above the plate when the sphere is in the position shown, which is above the center of the plate. They find the field is constant and uniform in a region above the center of the plate. Then they move the sphere very close to the center of the plate. One student says that the amount of work done to move the sphere is found by using W=qEdW=qEd, where qq is the charge on the sphere, EE is the uniform field that was measured, and dd is the distance that the sphere was moved. Is the student correct? Why or why not?

No, because moving the sphere closer to the plate affects the distribution of charge on the plate, so its electric field changes.

A particle with a small electric charge is moved in an electric field by an external force. When the particle is moved along an electric potential isoline, in what direction, if any, is the force exerted by the electric field on the particle?
