6. A cat slides down a rubber pole and falls into metal pail A, which rests on a wooden shelf. The impact breaks the shelf, causing metal pails B and C, which were in contact, to separate and fall to the floor. What is the final charge on pail C? a) Positiveb) Negativec) Zero iClicker Quiz

7. Coulomb’s torsion balance

16. Electric monopoles We sometimes refer to the total charge Q of an extended charged object as its “monopole moment”. When you back far enough away, any charged object, regardless of its shape, looks like a simple point charge. In the expression for the electric field of a monopole, the vector r originates from the “center of charge”.

17. Electric dipoles Equal and opposite charges of magnitude Q = |Q + | = |Q  |. r  + points from the negative charge to the positive charge. Like r  +, the dipole moment vector p always points from the negative charge to the positive charge. We now ask “What is the electric field produced by a dipole?” Define dipole moment: p

19. Moments of a distribution (extra details for purists) Monopole moment (scalar) Dipole moment (vector) Choose origin at the center of charge (like center of mass) Quadrupole moment (polar rank-2 tensor) The electric field of a charge distribution can be expressed as a series expansion involving successively higher moments of the distribution. (If you tell anyone that I mentioned this, I’ll deny it!)
