... The distances between charges in a group of charges may be much smaller than the distance between the group and a point of interest. In this situation, the system of charges can be modeled as continuous. The system of closely spaced charges is equivalent to a total charge that is continuously distri ...

... An infinitely long line charge having a uniform charge per unit length λ lies a distance d from point O as shown in Figure P24.19. Determine the total electric flux through the surface of a sphere of radius R centered at O resulting from this line charge. Consider both cases, where R < d and R > d. ...

... ΔUA→B = qVB - qVA = 2.0 × 10−6 -61.9 × 103 − 59.9 × 103 = -0.244 J It’s negative because A is at higher potential so q loses potential energy in the move e) The work done by the field in moving q from A to B is positive since the particle loses potential energy (it moves the way the field would move ...
