Question
ONLY NEED PART F,G& H
In a rectangular coordinate system, a positive point charge q = 9.00 nC is placed at the point x=0.240 m , y=0, and an identical point charge is placed at x= -0.240 m , y=0. Find the x and ycomponents and the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the following points.
Part A
Find the x and y components and the magnitude of the electric field at the origin.
Part B
Part C
Find the x and y components and the magnitude and direction of the electric field at x= 0.480 m , y=0.
Part D
E = ______ N/C
Part E
=_______ from the +x axis
Part F
Find the x and y components and the magnitude and direction of the electric field at x= 0.240 m , y= -0.350 m .
Ex,Ey = _______ N/C
Part G
E =______N/C
Part H
= _____ from the +x axis
Explanation / Answer
F)
let q1 is the charge placed on +x axis
q2 is the charge placed on -x axis
E1 = k*q1/y^2
= 9*10^9*9*10^-9/0.35^2
= 661 N/c
E1x = 0
E1y = -661 N/c
E2 = k*q2/r^2
= 9*10^9*9*10^-9/(0.48^2 + 0.35^2)
= 229.5 N/c
E2x = E2*cos(theta)
= 229.5*0.48/sqrt(0.48^2+0.35^2)
= 185.4 N/c
E2y = -E2*sin(theta)
= -229.5*0.35/sqrt(0.48^2+0.35^2)
= -135.2 N/c
Ex = E1x + E2x = 0 + 185.4 = 185.4 N/c
Ey = E1y + E2y = -661 - 135.2 = -796.2 N/c
G)
E = sqrt(Ex^2 + Ey^2)
= 817.5 N/c
F) theta = tan^-1(Ey/Ex)
= tan^-1(796.2/185.4)
= 77 dgrees below +x axis
