Question 1

A point charge +q and a point charge -q are separated by a distance 2a, forming an electric dipole centered at the origin. Using the equation for the potential due to a single point charge, what is the approximate electric potential $$V_R at a $$point R located a distance $$x$$ from the dipole center along the x-axis, as $$x$$ tends towards infinity?

Accepted Answer

$$V_R \approx -\frac{2qa}{4\pi \$$epsilon_0$$ x^2$}$$

Question 2

An electron is released from rest at a distance $$x = 1.0\ \mathrm{m}$$ from a fixed dipole with $$q = 1\ \mathrm{nC}$$ and $$a = 0.1\ \mathrm{mm}. $$What is the electron’s speed when it is a distance $$x = 2.0\ \mathrm{m}$$ from the dipole? (Neglect gravity and use $$e = 1.6 	imes 10$$^{-19}$$\ \mathrm{C}$$, $$m_e = 9.11 	imes 10$$^{-31}$$\ \mathrm{kg})$$

Accepted Answer

$$\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{V_p}{V_s}$$

Question 10

The average rate of energy consumption in the houses served by the transformer is $$18\ \mathrm{kW}. $$What is the rms current in the secondary coil?

Accepted Answer

$$I_s = \frac{P}{V_s}$$
