He getsit and is charged $5. A proton comes into the bar and hepays $5 for a drink. A neutron walks in, asks for a drink,but when the bartender gives it to him, never asks for anymoney. When the neutron walks out, the electron and theproton are upset. “How come he didn’t have to pay?”“Yeah!” “That guy? He’s a neutron – no charge.”I love this joke!Physics 1150 / Exam 1 Fall 2006 Page 2If Three Charges Are Good, Then Four Are Better (50,000 points)1.) Four identical 15.0 nC (= +15.0 × 10 -9 C) charges, q1 , q2 , q3 and q4 ,are equally spaced apart by a distance of 5.00 cm each. Find the totalelectric force, rFE, acting on q2.

A parallel plate capacitor consists of two metal plates, each 0.0700 m wide by 0.124 m long, with a gapd = 1.15 mm.
