Electric Fields and Electric Potential — Homework

Decide whether a problem is asking about the field itself or about potential/potential energy before choosing a formula.

  1. 1.Find the electric field 0.1 m from a point charge of 4x10^-6 C.
  2. 2.Find the electric potential 0.05 m from a point charge of 6x10^-7 C.
  3. 3.A charge of 4x10^-6 C moves through a potential difference of 500 V. Find the change in its electric potential energy.
  4. 4.Explain why the electric field from a point charge follows an inverse-square law, just like Coulomb's law itself.
  5. 5.Describe a real experience with static electricity (a shock, hair standing up, clothes sticking together) and explain it in terms of charge and potential difference.
