(Several point charges, or a continuous distribution)•Electric potential: –What is the potential produced by a system of charges? (Several point charges, or a continuous distribution)Plus a few other items…Plus a few other items…•Electric field lines, equipotential surfaces: lines go from +ve to –ve charges; lines are perpendicular to equipotentials; lines (and equipotentials) never cross each other…•Gauss’ law: =q/0 . Given the field, what is the charge enclosed? Given the charges, what is the flux? Use it to deduce formulas for electric field. •Electric dipoles: field and potential produced BY a dipole, torque ON a dipole by an electric field, potential energy of a dipole•Electric potential, work and potential energy: work to bring a charge somewhere is W = –qV (signs!). Potential energy of a system = negative work done to build it.•Conductors: field and potential inside conductors, and on the surface. •Shell theorem: systems with spherical symmetry can be thought of as a single point charge (but how much charge?) •Symmetry, and “infinite” systems.Conductors and insulatorsConductors and insulators•Will two charged objects attract or repel?•Can a charged object attract or repel an uncharged object?•What is the electric field inside a conductor?•What is the direction of the electric field on the surface of a conductor?•What happens to a conductor when it is immersed in an electric field?Electric forces and fields: point chargesElectric forces and fields: point chargesFigure 22N-14 shows an arrangement of four charged particles, with angle  = 34° and distance d = 2.20 cm. The two negatively charged particles on the y axis are electrons that are fixed in place; the particle at the right has a charge q2 = +5e (a) Find distance D such that the net force on the particle at the left, due to the three other particles, is zero. (b) If the two electrons were moved further from the x axis, would the required value of D be greater than, less than, or the same as in part (a)?
