6 An infinite non-conducting sheet has a surface charge density o = 5.80pC/m². (a) How
much work is done.
by the
the electric field due to the sheet if a particle of charge
ue to
q+1.60x10-¹°C is moved from the sheet to a point P at distance d= 3.56cm from the
sheets. (b) If the electric potential V is defined to be zero on the sheet, what is V at P

Respuesta :

a. Work done = 2. 0648 Joules

b. Electrical potential, V = 4. 03 × 10^10 volts

How to determine the parameters

a. Work done = force × distance

Force = density × acceleration due to gravity

Force = 5. 80 × 10

Force = 58 Newton

We have that distance = 3. 56cm = 0. 0356 m

Work done = 58 × 0. 0356

Work done = 2. 0648 Joules

b. The formula for electric potential is given thus,

Electric potential, V = [tex]k\frac{q}{r}[/tex]

r = 0. 0356m

k = Coulomb's constant = [tex]8.98*10^9[/tex]kg⋅m3⋅s−4⋅A−2.

q= 1.60x10^-¹C

substitute into the formula

Electric potential, V = [tex]8. 98[/tex] × [tex]10^9[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1. 6 * 10^-^-1}{0. 0356}[/tex]

Electric potential, V = [tex]8. 98 * 10^9[/tex] × [tex]4. 494[/tex]

Electric potential, V = [tex]4. 03 * 10^1^0[/tex] volts
