Question

Decide how the sketches below would be listed, if they were listed in order of decreasing potential energy. That is, select "1 beside the sketch that shows the system with the highest potential energy, select "2" beside the sketch that shows the system with the next highest potential energy, and so on. students: since the units of each charge are not written, you may assume any convenient and reasonable unit, for example Note for advanced coulombs or multiples of e. o1 (highest) o1 (highest) ©2 0 3 4 (lowest) 4 (lowest) 1 (highest) o1 (highest) 02 03 0 3 4 (lowest) 4 (lowest)

Explanation / Answer

PE = K*q1*q2/r

for left top:
PE = k*(-1)*3/3
= -k

for right top:
PE = k*(1)*4/3
= 4/3 K

for left bottom:
PE = k*(-1)*2/3
= -2/3 k

for right bottom:
PE = k*(-1)*5/3
= -5/3 K

1 is right top
2 is left bottom
3 is left top
4 is right bottom
