Problem 1 A curved plastic rod of charge +Q forms a semi-circle of radius R in the x-y plane, as shown below on the left. The charge is distributed uniformly across the rod. dQ +0 +Q Now let's analytically determine the magnitude and direction of the electric field E at the center of the circle using polar coordinates and the charge element dQ shown in the image on the right. write down an expression for the electric field dE at...
A thin glass rod is a semi-circle of radius R. a charge is non-uniformly distributes along the rod with a linear charge density given by lambda = lambda_0 cos(theta) where lambda_0 is a positive constant Point P is at the center of the semi-circle. Find the electric field (magnitude & direction) at point P.
A semi-circular, insulating rod has radius R and lies in the xy-plane. It carries a total charge Q. The center of curvature (i.e., the center of the circle of which this is a part) is at the origin, and the rod itself is in the first and second quadrants. Find the electric field vector produced by this charge distribution at the origin.
A very thin uniformly charged plastic rod with total charge radius r and placed in the second quadrant, with its center at the origin. An identical rod (except with charge + Q) continues the circle as shown in the figure, to form a half circle centered at the origin. Find the electric field vector E at the origin, writing it in component form. Can anyone answer this question? Will give thump up :) 3) A very thin uniformly charged plastic...
RC-1A charge +Q is evenly distributed around a semicircle of radius R in the x-y plane as shown to the right. a) Use dq charge elements to explain why the net field at the center of the semicircle (the origin) has no y component. Use a drawing like the one shown in your explanation. b) Apply Coulomb's law to calculate the strength (magnitude) of the net electric field at the origin in terms of K, Q, R and any other...
Week 3: Electric Field of Continuous Charge Distribution HW A plastic rod, shown on the right, has a uniform linear charge density λ and is bent into a quarter circle. Your goal is to find the electric field at the origin. 1 Label an arbitrary small piece of charge dq at an angle θ as shown in the figure. Draw a vector representing the field at the origin from that small piece of charge.2 Write expressions for the x- and y- components...
A charged rod is curved so that it is part of a circle of radius R (see figure below). The excess positive charge Q is uniformly distributed on the rod. Find an expression for the electric field at point A in the plane of the curved rod in terms of the parameters given in the figure. (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: k and o.) magnitude E = direction ---Select--- ФУА
Two curved plastic rods, one of charge +q and the other of charge -q, form a circle of radius R in the plane. The horizontal and vertical axes are shown, and the join between the two rods is on the vertical axis. 5. a. Draw a representative sample of electric field lines (with directions) inside and outside the circle. It should look reasonably accurate. Total charge on left half: +q Total charge on right half: q b. If charge is...
A plastic rod with uniform linear charge density λ is bent into the quarter circlea) Set up, but do not evaluate them here, definite integrals for the x-and y-components of the electric field at the origin in terms of λ, R, and ε0 or K . Clearly indicate your dq, r, dEx, and dEy on on the figureb) Evaluate the integrals and find the magnitude of the net electric field at the origin.
A very thin plastic rod is bent into a nearly complete circle with a radius of R-5 cm. There is a gap between the ends of width D 2 cm. A positive charge of Q-1 nC is uniformly spread over the length of the rod. What is the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the center of the circle?
