1.
It takes 50 J of energy to move 10 C of charge from point A to point B. What is the potential
difference between points A and B?
2.
A proton moves 0.10 m along the direction of an electric field of magnitude 3.0 V/m. What is
the change in kinetic energy of the proton?
3.
Two parallel plates, separated by 0.20 m, are connected to a 12-V battery. An electron
released from rest at a location 0.10 m from the negative plate. When the electron arrives at a
distance 0.050 m from the positive plate, what is the speed of the electron?
4.
What is the potential at a distance of 5.0 × 10-10 m from a nucleus of charge + 50e?
5.
A square is 1.0 m on a side. Charges of +4.0 μC are placed in two diagonally opposite corners.
In the other two corners are placed charges of +3.0 μC and -3.0 μC. What is the absolute
potential in the square's center?
6.
A parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area 0.20 m2 separated by a distance of 1.0 mm. What
is the strength of the electric field between these plates when this capacitor is connected to a
6.0-V battery?
7.
A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed with plate area of 0.40 m2 and a plate separation of 0.
10 mm. How much charge is stored on it when it is charged to a potential difference of 12 V?
