Two charges are placed on the y axis. One charge of +3.5 micro-coulombs is placed at y +3.9 m, and another charge of +10.7 micro-coulombs is placed at y = -4.8 m. If a third charge of -6 micro-coulombs is placed between them, where on the y axis (i.e. y = ______) is the total for electric force on this charge equal to zero? Answer in meters.

A charge is placed at x = 0 meters and another charge of 5 micro-coulombs is placed at x = +4.4 m (both on the x axis). The total electric field produced by these two charges is zero at x = +2.1 meters. Then the charge at x = 0 m, switches sign but its magnitude is not changed. Where on the x axis (x = ____ m), is the total electric field equal to zero now? Answer in meters.

24 point charges of +2.4 micro-coulombs are placed on the perimeter of a circle with a radius of 1.3 meters. Also, charges of -2 micro-coulombs, -6 micro-coulombs, and -4 micro-coulombs are also placed on this perimeter as well. Another charge of +6 micro-coulombs with a mass of 0.16 kg is originally moving at 3.2 m/s at the center of the circle. How fast is this charge moving in m/s when it is very, very, far away from the other charges?

A point charge of -3.5 micro-coulombs with a mass of 0.42 kg is placed in a uniform electric field directed in the +x direction. Initially, the charge is moving in +x direction at 9.5 m/s and after it has traveled a displacement of 2.2 meters in the -x direction, it is moving at 24.7 m/s in the -x direction. If a piece of paper with an area of 0.5 m2 is placed in the field and the angle between the...

3)  14 point charges of +1.7 micro-coulombs are placed on the perimeter of a circle. Also, charges of -3.8 micro-coulombs, -4.8 micro-coulombs, and -1.8 micro-coulombs are also placed on this perimeter as well. The circle's radius is then decreased by a factor of 5 and this causes the total potential at the center of the circle to increase by 75 x 103 Volts. What is the original radius of the circle in meters?

7) A charge of -9 micro-coulombs with a mass of 11 kg is placed on a horizontal surface. A uniform electric field is applied either in the +y or -y direction (perpendicular to the surface). In order to lift the charge off the surface (i.e. the normal force becomes zero) what does the minimum magnitude of the field need to be and in what direction does it need to be applied? Answer in 106 N/C as in previous problems and...
