Electric Forces and Electric Fields Chapter 15 Electric Forces and Electric Fields

A Question Two identical conducting spheres A and B carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters. A third identical conducting sphere C is uncharged. Sphere C is first touched to A, then to B, and finally removed. As a result, the electrostatic force between A and B, which was originally F, becomes: A. F/2 B. F/4 C. 3F/8 D. F/16 E. 0 c

Phy 2054: Physics II trial run [-0.344N, -0.218N], 212.38º Phy 2054: Physics II trial run In Fig. at right, the particles have charges q1 = -q2 = 300 nC and q3 = -q4 = 200 nC, and distance a = 4.0 cm. What is the direction of the force on particle 4? A. B. C. D.

PHY 2054: Physics II TALP: Take a look Problem Force on the center charge = 6kq2/d2 Direction: -x, 180º, d

PHY 2054: Physics II q1 = q4 = Q; q2 = q3 = q what is Q/q so that the force on 1 is zero All charges same sign. There is no solution. Q and q different sign. There is a possible solution. Is the answer the same if the force on 3 is to be zero

PHY 2054: Physics II What is the force on the central chlorine ion? Suppose that we put in an electron that sits on a cesium site and neutralizes it, which way does the Chlorine move?

Conductors in Electrostatic Equilibrium When no net motion of charge occurs within a conductor, the conductor is said to be in electrostatic equilibrium An isolated conductor has the following properties: The electric field is zero everywhere inside the conducting material Any excess charge on an isolated conductor resides entirely on its surface

Properties, cont The electric field just outside a charged conductor is perpendicular to the conductor’s surface On an irregularly shaped conductor, the charge accumulates at locations where the radius of curvature of the surface is smallest (that is, at sharp points)

Property 1 The electric field is zero everywhere inside the conducting material Consider if this were not true If there were an electric field inside the conductor, the free charge there would move and there would be a flow of charge If there were a movement of charge, the conductor would not be in equilibrium

Property 2 Any excess charge on an isolated conductor resides entirely on its surface A direct result of the 1/r2 repulsion between like charges in Coulomb’s Law If some excess of charge could be placed inside the conductor, the repulsive forces would push them as far apart as possible, causing them to migrate to the surface

Property 3 The electric field just outside a charged conductor is perpendicular to the conductor’s surface Consider what would happen it this was not true The component along the surface would cause the charge to move It would not be in equilibrium

Property 4 On an irregularly shaped conductor, the charge accumulates at locations where the radius of curvature of the surface is smallest (that is, at sharp points)

Property 4, cont. Any excess charge moves to its surface The charges move apart until an equilibrium is achieved The amount of charge per unit area is greater at the flat end The forces from the charges at the sharp end produce a larger resultant force away from the surface Why a lightning rod works

Experiments to Verify Properties of Charges Faraday’s Ice-Pail Experiment Concluded a charged object suspended inside a metal container causes a rearrangement of charge on the container in such a manner that the sign of the charge on the inside surface of the container is opposite the sign of the charge on the suspended object Millikan Oil-Drop Experiment Measured the elementary charge, e Found every charge had an integral multiple of e q = n e

Van de Graaff Generator An electrostatic generator designed and built by Robert J. Van de Graaff in 1929 Charge is transferred to the dome by means of a rotating belt Eventually an electrostatic discharge takes place

Electric Flux Field lines penetrating an area A perpendicular to the field The product of EA is the flux, Φ In general: ΦE = E A cos θ

Electric Flux, cont. ΦE = E A cos θ The perpendicular to the area A is at an angle θ to the field When the area is constructed such that a closed surface is formed, use the convention that flux lines passing into the interior of the volume are negative and those passing out of the interior of the volume are positive

Gauss’ Law Gauss’ Law states that the electric flux through any closed surface is equal to the net charge Q inside the surface divided by εo εo is the permittivity of free space and equals 8.85 x 10-12 C2/Nm2 The area in Φ is an imaginary surface, a Gaussian surface, it does not have to coincide with the surface of a physical object

Electric Field of a Charged Thin Spherical Shell The calculation of the field outside the shell is identical to that of a point charge The electric field inside the shell is zero

PHY 2054: Physics II No force/field from the charge outside On inside circle E.4πr2=q/εo Coulomb’s law Far outside, E = k 5q/r2 P + + + + + +

PHY 2054: Physics II The electric field in a metal is zero Charge +q on inside surface. Because it is neutral, outside surface must be -q.

Electric Field of a Nonconducting Plane Sheet of Charge Use a cylindrical Gaussian surface The flux through the ends is EA, there is no field through the curved part of the surface The total charge is Q = σA Note, the field is uniform

Electric Field of a Nonconducting Plane Sheet of Charge, cont. The field must be perpendicular to the sheet The field is directed either toward or away from the sheet

Parallel Plate Capacitor The device consists of plates of positive and negative charge The total electric field between the plates is given by The field outside the plates is zero

Summary Charges and forces on them Electric fields Gauss’ theorem Field near a plate Shells and wires Two plates
