Imagine that you are moving a positive test charge along the line between two identical point charges. With regard to the electric potential, is the midpoint on the line analogous to the top of a mountain or the bottom of a valley when the two point charges are (a) positive and (b) negative?
| (a) bottom of a valley (b) top of a mountain |
| (a) top of a mountain (b) bottom of a valley |
| (a) top of a mountain (b) top of a mountain |
| (a) bottom of a valley (b) bottom of a valley |
Test Charge will move away from positive charge toward negative charge. In the same way anything dropped from top of a mountain will automatically reaches to bottom of Valley without any extra force or effort hence option b is correct i.e a) top of mountain and b) bottom of valley

Two identical positive point charges (q1 = q2 = +2.00 nC) are placed at the bottom two vertices of an equilateral triangle of edge length 5.00 cm. One negative point charge (q3= -3.00 nC) is placed at the apex. (a) Calculate the electrical potential produced by the combination of all three point charges together at the midpoint of the base of the triangle. (Remember that each angle in an equilateral triangle is 60 degrees.) (Answer: 816 V) (b) Calculate the...
Two point charges have identical charge amount and are positive. A positive test charge +q is placed as shown, equidistant from the two charges. What is net force direction on this charge? O Up Down Left O Right O Zero
You have two charges +4q and one charge -q. (a) How would you place them along a line so there's no net force on any of the three? Options: One positive charge must be at the midpoint between the other two charges. The negative charge must be at the midpoint between the two positive charges. One positive charge must be four times the distance from the negative charge as it is from the other positive charge. There is no way...

Two identical negative charges (Q, & Q2) are positioned as shown (coordinates seen). A positive test charge qo is placed at point P along the y-axis (coordinates (0, y)). Determine the direction of the net force on 90- (-x,0) (+x,0)
3. A positive charge of 3 uC is at the origin. A negative charge with the same magnitude is 8 m away along the x direction. (a) What are the magnitude and direction of the electric fieldat the points between the two charges, 2, 4, and 6 m from the positive charge? (b) What is the electric potential at each of these three points? (The reference point, where V 0, is infinitely far away.)
A positive charge +2Q and a negative charge -Q are separated along a horizontal line by a distance s. What is the magnitude of the electric field at point P, a distance s above the negative charge?
Two charges of magnitude |?| = 10 ?? are separated by a distance of 10 ?? along a horizontal axis. What is the potential as well as the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the midpoint between the two charges if a) both charges are positive and b) the left charge is positive and the right charge is negative?
The figure shows a test charge q between the two positive charges. Find the force (in newtons) on the test charge for q=4 μC. Give a positive answer if the force is to the right and a negative answer if the force is to the left.For the previous question, find the electric field (in newtons/coulomb) at the position of the test charge. Again, supply a positive value if the electric field points to the right and a negative value if...
