(b) attractive if charges have opposite signs
Like charges repel and opposites attract !!

To the left of the charge on the left
The electric field is nowhere zero
Not enough info – need to know which is positive
I don’t know
P01 - 18
PRS Answer: Electric Field
Answer: 3. To the left of the charge on the left
Between: field goes from source to sink.
On right: field dominated by qR (bigger & closer).
On left: because qL is weaker, its “push” left will
somewhere be balanced by qR’s “pull” right
P01 - 19
Electric Field Lines
1. Join end-to-end infinitesimal vectors representing E…the curve
that results is an electric field line (also known as line of force).
2. By construction then, the direction of the E field at any given
point is tangent to the field line crossing that point.
3. Field lines point away from positive charges and terminate on
negative charges.
4. Field lines never cross each other.
5. The strength of the field is encoded in the density of the field
lines.

PRS Answer: Force
The force between
the two charges is:
2) Repulsive
One way to tell is to notice that they both must
be sources (or sinks). Hence, as like particles
repel, the force is repulsive.
You can also see this as tension in the field lines

PRS: Field Lines
Electric field lines show:
1. Directions of forces that exist in space at all
times.

P01 - 41
PRS Answer: Dipole Field
Answer: 2) More rapidly than 1/r2
We know this must be a case by thinking
about what a dipole looks like from a large
distance. To first order, it isn’t there (net
charge is 0), so the E-Field must decrease
faster than if there were a point charge there.

no force but a torque
both a force and a torque
neither a force nor a torque
P01 - 50
PRS Answer: Non-Uniform Field
E
Answer: 3. both force and torque
Because the field is non-uniform, the forces on
the two equal but opposite point charges do
not cancel.
As always, the dipole wants to rotate to align
with the field – there is a torque on the dipole
as well
