1 of 4 CTVoltage 0 Two charges Q and 2Q are released from rest a distance R apart particle 1 Q particle 2 2Q R Each particle feels only the coulomb force due to the other charge As the particles continue to move apart after their release the speed of each particle A decreases B increases C stays the same Answer the speed increases The acceleration decreases as they move apart but the acceleration is never zero so the particles never stop going faster and faster CTVoltage 1 The work done by a constant force r displacement D r is defined as r r WF F Dr r F in moving an object through a F initial r final A person carefully lowers a book at constant speed a distance h i The work done by the person done by gravity and done by the net force on the book are A B C D E person gravity None of these net force 0 0 h f Answer The work done by the person is negative the work done by gravity is positive the work done by the net force is zero 1 14 2019 PHYS1120 Dubson Fa09 University of Colorado 2 of 4 CTVoltage 2 A positive test charge q is carefully moved by some external agent tweezers at constant speed a distance x between two capacitor plates in the direction along the electric field The work done by the agent done by the electric field and done by the net force on the test charge are agent field net force A B C 0 D 0 E None of these E q x The change in electrostatic potential energy PE DU Wext Wfield of positive test charge was A PE increased B PE decreased C 0 PE constant The change in voltage of the test charge was A negative V decreased B positive V increased C zero no change in voltage Answers The work done by the agent is negative the agent has to restrain the particle as it is moved The work done by the field is positive the work done by the net force is zero The change in the PE was negative PE became more negative since the work done by the external agent is negative The change in the voltage is negative V became more negative as we moved from near charges to near charges 1 14 2019 PHYS1120 Dubson Fa09 University of Colorado 3 of 4 CTVoltage 3 A positive charge q is moved from position i to position f between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown As the test charge q was moved from i to f the potential energy U increased or decreased and the voltage V at the position of the test charge increased or decreased E A PE increased and V decreased B PE decreased and V increased C PE increased and V increased D PE decreased and V decreased E None of these q f x i What if the test charge was negative q same choices Answers For the positive charge q moving to the left the PE increases and the voltage V also increases For a negative charge q moving to the left the PE decreases but the voltage still increases The voltage at the location of a test charge does not depend on the test charge The PE of a test charge does depend on the test charge 1 14 2019 PHYS1120 Dubson Fa09 University of Colorado 4 of 4 CTVoltage 4 Consider 4 charges Q Q Q and Q arranged in a square with points X and Y located midway between a pair of charges as shown Q Q Y Q X Q At point X the voltage is A positive B negative C zero At point Y the voltage is A positive B negative C zero At point Y the electric field A is zero B points right D points up E points down C points left Answers At point X the voltage is zero At point Y the voltage is positive At Point Y the E field points right 1 14 2019 PHYS1120 Dubson Fa09 University of Colorado
