Question

Chapter 23, Problem 037 A square metal plate of edge length 7.1 cm and negligible thickness has a total charge of 7.9 x 106 C. (a) Estimate the magnitude E of the electric field just off the center of the plate (at, say, a distance of 0.62 mm from the center) by assuming that the charge is spread uniformly over the two faces of the plate. (b) Estimate E at a distance of 41 m (large relative to the plate size) by assuming that the plate is a charged particle.

    Show work please A square plate of edge length 14.0 cm and negligible thickness has a total charge of 5.20 times 10^-6 C. Estimate the magnitude E of the electric field just off the center of the plate (at say, a distance of 0.50 mm from the center) by assuming that the charge is spread uniformly over the two forces of the plate. Estimate E at a distance of 35 m (large relative to the plate size) by assuming that...

    Consider a cylindrical capacitor like that shown in Fig. 24.6. Let d = rb − ra be the spacing between the inner and outer conductors. (a) Let the radii of the two conductors be only slightly different, so that d << ra. Show that the result derived in Example 24.4 (Section 24.1) for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor then reduces to Eq. (24.2), the equation for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, with A being the surface area of...
