16.5 A 4.7 μC point charge is held fixed at the origin. a) What is the electric potential difference between a point 20 cm from the 4.7 μC charge and a point 70 cm away from the 4.7 μC charge? b) If a 8 nC charge is released at point a, what is the change in potential energy of the 8 nC charge as it passes point b? c) If the mass of the 8 nC charge is 0.075 g, what is the speed of the 8 nC charge as it passes point b?
answers: a) ‒1.51 x 105 V b) ‒1.21 x 10‒3 J c) 5.68 m/s
Electric potential due to a point charge Q at a distance r is given by
V=kQ/r
k=9×10^(9) Nm2/C2
