field, has a larger magnitude.<br />

ANSWER:<br />

greater than the magnitude of the electric field at point B.<br />

less than the magnitude of the electric field at point B.<br />

equal to the magnitude of the electric field at point B.<br />

unknown because the value of the electric potential at point C is unknown.<br />

Problem 23.32<br />

Description: A total electric charge of q is distributed uniformly over the surface of a metal sphere <strong>with</strong> a radius of r. The potential is zero at a point at<br />

infinity. (a) Find the value of the potential at r_1 from the center of the sphere. (b) Find the value...<br />

A total electric charge of 4.10 nC is distributed uniformly over the surface of a metal sphere <strong>with</strong> a radius of 22.0 cm . The potential is zero at a point at<br />

infinity.<br />

Part A<br />

Find the value of the potential at 53.0 cm from the center of the sphere.<br />

ANSWER:<br />

= 69.5 V<br />

Part B<br />

Find the value of the potential at 22.0 cm from the center of the sphere.<br />

ANSWER:<br />

= 168 V<br />

Part C<br />

Find the value of the potential at 11.0 cm from the center of the sphere.<br />

ANSWER:<br />

= 168 V<br />

Exercise 23.34<br />

Description: An infinitely long line of charge has linear charge density lambda. A proton (mass m_p, charge e) is r from the line and moving directly<br />

toward the line at v. (a) Calculate the proton’s initial kinetic energy. (b) How close does the proton get to...<br />

An infinitely long line of charge has linear charge density 3.00×10 −12 C/m . A proton (mass 1.67×10 −27 kg , charge e) is 13.5 cm from the line and moving<br />

directly toward the line at 2500 m/s .<br />

Part A<br />

Calculate the proton’s initial kinetic energy.<br />

Express your answer numerically in joules to four significant figures.<br />
