Question

1. Two charged rods, each with net charge-O... are held in place as below are held in place as shown in the top view diagram a. A small test charge q travels from point X to point Y along the circular are shown. Draw an arrow on the diagram at each point (X and ) to show the direction of the electric force on the test charge at that point. Explain why you drew the arrows as you did. i. .0 ii. Is the work done on the charge by the electric field positive, negative, or zero? Explain. he Porce and the Zero because the diveakton of the Porce and splacamant coill egual to 2ero is porpendiadar so the dot produet ii. Is the electric potential difference AVssr (ie. V,- Vo) positive, negative, or zero? Explain. 4 b. The test charge is launched from point X with an initial speed v, and is observed to pass through point Y. Is the speed of the test charge at point Y greater than, less than, or equal to v,? Explain your reasoning. al to Vo becamse they have t ecouse t e the Souwe

Explanation / Answer

This question is wrong. In between two negatively/positively charged rods, this motion is impossible. Because, the question says that, 'the charge travels', but a charge can not travel itself in such a way shown. To travel in a circular path, it needs a centripetal force, but this arrangement can not satisfy the requirement. Otherwise, the charge must be driven by an external force to travel in a circular path.
