Phy213: General Physics III 1/14/2019Chapter 24 Worksheet 1The Electric Potential and Potential Difference:1. Two point charges are held at the corners of a rectangle as shown in the figure. The lengths ofsides of the rectangle are 0.050 m and 0.150 m. Assume that the electric potential is defined to be zero at infinity.a. Determine the electric potential at corner A. b. What is the potential difference, VB - VA, between corners A and B? c. What is the electric potential energy of a +3 C charge placed at corner A? 2. Consider 2 concentric charged conducting spheres, R1=0.1 m and R2 =0.2 m respectively. Theelectric potential of the inner sphere is +4V and the outer sphere is -6V.a. Determine the equation for theelectric potential for the followingregions associated with the spheres:i) r < R1i) R1 < r < R2i) r > R2b. Determine the equation for the electric field for the following regions associated with the spheres:i) r < R1i) R1 < r < R2i) r > R2c. What is the electric potential at point P, located 1 m from the center of the spheres?d. How much work is needed to take an electron at infinity and place it at point P?+4V-6 V.

Consider a charged parallel plate capacitor (air filled) with a charge of 1.5 C (q) on each of itsplates and a plate distance of 1x10-4 m. The potential difference between the plates is 120 V.a. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the electric field between the plates.b. What is the difference in electric potential energy between an electron placed very close to the left plate compared to the right plate?4. A fixed point charge, q1 = –2.0 x 10-6 C is located in space.a. What is the electric potential difference between infinity (i.e. a long way away) and a position 0.1 m away from q1?b. How much work is required to bring a second charge, q2 = -1.0 x 10-6 C from infinity to a position 0.1m away from q1?c. How much work is required to bring q2 from 0.1m to 0.05m away from q1?d. If both q1 and q2 are fixed at a separation distance of 0.05m, at what position is the electric potential equal to zero?+++++++++---------Phy213: General Physics III 1/14/2019Chapter 24 Worksheet 45. A proton (fixed) and an electron (initially at rest but free to move) are located alone and separated by a great distance (but are even farther away from anything else).a. How much work does the proton perform to “pull” the electron to a position of 5.29x10-11 m away from the proton?b. Apply the Conservation of Energy, determine the kinetic energy of the electron when it is located 5.29 x 10-11 m from the proton.c. Estimate how fast the electron is moving when it gets there?6. The electric potential across the outer membrane of a biological cell (thickness = 6.0 nm) is 70 mV. The outside of the cell is more negative than the inside. When an “ion channel” embedded in the cell membrane is activated a water-filled pathway is opened and ions can flow through the channel.a. What is the magnitude of the electric field inside this ion channel?b. How much electrical work would be performed on a Na+ ion as it is “pulled” through the channel? Assume that only the electric potential drives the ion across the membrane.c. How many Na+ ions would cross the channel if the total charge movement from outside to inside is 25 pC?d. How much electrical work would be performed on to drive all of the Na+ ions in (c) through the channel? Assume that the electric potential difference across the cell remains constant.e. Starting from rest, how fast would you expect a Na+ ion to be traveling when it reaches the other end of the ion channel? Assume that the Na+ ion encounters no resistance and all potential energy is converted into
