A particle with negativecharge is carried from x = 20.0 cm to x = 60.0 cm.(i) Does the electric potential energy of the charge–field increase, remain constant,decrease, or change unpredictably?(ii) Has the particle moved to a position where the electric potential is higher than before,unchanged, lower than before, or unpredictable? It increases.It remains constant. It decreases.It changes unpredictably.The potential is higher than before.The potential is unchanged. The potential is lower than before.The change in potential is unpredictable.2/23/2014 HW 4http://www.webassign.net/web/Student/Assignment-Responses/last?dep=8448417 3/113. 1/1 points | Previous Answers SerPSE8 25.QQ.001.In the figure below, two points A and B are located within a region in which there is an electricfield.

The rectangle is 12.3 cm high and22.5 cm wide. Remember that negative work means that we can get work out of the process. 7.96E17 7.96e17 J2/23/2014 HW 4http://www.webassign.net/web/Student/Assignment-Responses/last?dep=8448417 7/118. 1/1 points | Previous Answers SerPSE8 25.P.031.In 1911, Ernest Rutherford and his assistants Geiger and Marsden conducted an experiment inwhich they scattered alpha particles (nuclei of helium atoms) from thin sheets of gold. An alphaparticle, having charge +2e and mass 6.64 1027 kg, is a product of certain radioactive decays.The results of the experiment led Rutherford to the idea that most of an atom's mass is in a verysmall nucleus, with electrons in orbit around it. Assume an alpha particle, initially very far from astationary gold nucleus, is fired with a velocity of 2.27 107 m/s directly toward the nucleus(charge +79e). What is the smallest distance between the alpha particle and the nucleus beforethe alpha particle reverses direction? Assume the gold nucleus remains stationary.21.3 21.3 fm 9. 1/1 points | Previous Answers
