2 Exercise 5 p. 52 An electron moves from one point to another where the second point has a larger value of the electric potential by 5 volts. If the initial velocity was zero, how fast will the electron be going at the second point?

3 In electrostatics: If we know V(x,y) we can find the components of electric field and In electrostatics, the electric field is conservative:

4 1)The electric potential V in a region of space is given by where A is a constant. Derive an expression for the electric field at any point in this region. 2)The electric potential V in a region of space is given by where c is a constant. The source of the field is at the origin. Derive an expression for the electric field at any point in this region.

5 In electrostatics, the electric field is conservative: Chapter 3 Summary

6 In electrostatics: If we know V(x,y) we can find the components of electric field and

7 Electric potential V is a scalar!

8 An old rule of thumb: you have to study 2-3 hours a week outside the class per each credit hour

9 Electric field lines These are fictitious lines we sketch which point in the direction of the electric field. 1) The direction of at any point is tangent to the line of force at that point. 2) The density of lines of force in any region is proportional to the magnitude of in that region Lines never cross.

10 Density is the number of lines going through an area (N) divided by the size of the area For a charge q located at the origin It is important that the force is proportional to

11 Gauss’s Law The total flux of electric field out of any closed surface is equal to the charge contained inside the surface divided by.

12 What is or flux of any vector, e.g. velocity of a water flow? Consider a flow with a velocity vector. Let S be a small area perpendicular to. a) The volume of water flowing through S per unit time is S a) b) Now S is tilted with respect to. The volume of water flowing through S per unit time is n S b) Area vector is the angle between velocity vector and unit vector normal to the surface S. Flux:

15 The flux of

16 Suppose there was an electric field given by What would be the electric flux through a plane with area A if the plane were oriented in the y-z plane at ? What would be the electric flux if the plane were oriented in the x-z plane at ?

17 Definition of a solid angle S does not depend on radius The largest Then
