  6. 25-2 Potential Difference and electric field When a force is “conservative” ie gravitational and the electrostatic force a potential energy can be defined Change in electric potential energy is negative of work done by electric force: ∆ V = -∫ E ds = -Ed Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  7. Units of Potential Difference • The change in potential energy is directly related to the change in voltage. DU = qDV DV = DU/q • DU: change in electrical potential energy (J) • q: charge moved (C) • DV: potential difference (V) • All charges will spontaneously go to lower potential energies if they are allowed to move. Because of this, potential difference is often referred to as “voltage” In addition, 1 N/C = 1 V/m - we can interpret the electric field as a measure of the rate of change with position of the electric potential. So what is an electron Volt (eV)? Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  8. Electron-Volts • Another unit of energy that is commonly used in atomic and nuclear physics is the electron-volt • One electron-volt is defined as the energy a charge-field system gains or loses when a charge of magnitude e (an electron or a proton) is moved through a potential difference of 1 volt 1 eV = 1.60 x 10-19 J • Since all charges try to decrease UE, and DUE = qDV, this means that spontaneous movement of charges result in negative DU. • DV = DU / q • Positive charges like to DECREASE their potential (DV < 0) • Negative charges like to INCREASE their potential. (DV > 0) Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  9. VB – VA = VC - VA VB = VC A uniform electric field directed along the positive x axis. Point B is at a lower electric potential than point A. Points B and C are at the same electric potential. Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  10. Example If a 9 V battery has a charge of 46 C how much chemical energy does the battery have? E = V x Q = 9 V x 46C = 414 Joules Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  11. Example A pair of oppositely charged, parallel plates are separated by 5.33 mm. A potential difference of 600 V exists between the plates. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric field strength between the plates? (b) What is the magnitude of the force on an electron between the plates? Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  12. Example Calculate the speed of a proton that is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 120 V Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  13. +Q 25-3 Electric Potential and Potential energy due to point charges ds for a point charge Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  14. Recall the convention for the potential “zero point” Equipotential surfaces are concentric spheres Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  15. Superposition of potentials +Q1 +Q2 0 +Q3 Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  16. E and V for a Point Charge • The equipotential lines are the dashed blue lines • The electric field lines are the brown lines • The equipotential lines are everywhere perpendicular to the field lines An equipotential surface is a surface on which the electric potential is the same everywhere. Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  17. Figure 25.4 (Quick Quiz 25.3) Four equipotential surfaces Equipotential surfaces (the dashed blue lines are intersections of these surfaces with the page) and electric field lines (red- rown lines) for (a) a uniform electric field produced by an infinite sheet of charge, (b) a point charge, In all cases, the equipotential surfaces are perpendicular to the electric field lines at every point Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  18. Example (25.1) A 12-V battery connected to two parallel plates. The electric field between the plates has a magnitude given by the potential difference V divided by the plate separation d =0.3 cm Example (25.2) Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  20. Example:(a) In figure a, 12 electrons are equally spaced and fixed around a circle of radius R. Relative to V=0 at infinity, what are the electric potential and electric field at the center C of the circle due to these electrons? (b) If the electrons are moved along the circle until they are nonuniformly spaced over a 120 are (figure b), what then is the potential at C? Solution: Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

  21. Potential due to a group of point charges Example (25.3) (a) The electric potential at P due to the two charges q1 and q2 is the algebraic sum of the potentials due to the individual charges. (b) A third charge q3 = 3.00 C is brought from infinity to a position near the other charges. Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

Does P.E. increase or decrease? +6 mC Moving positive q +2 nC Signs for Potential Energy Consider Points A, B, and C. For +2 nC at A: U = +1.35 mJ The field E does positive work, the P.E. decreases. If +2 nC moves from A to C (closer to +Q), the field E does negativework and P.E. increases. Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

U = 3.00 mJ U = qV = (-4 x 10-6mC)(-750 V); Since P.E. is positive, E will do + work if q is released. Norah Ali Al-moneef king saud university

VAB = +2700 V dWAB = -dU= q(VA – VB) = -(2 x 10-6 C )(+2700 V) Work = -5.40 mJ E-field does negative work. du increased Thus, an external force was required to move the charge.

  35. · B 2 cm Q1 +3 nC + 6 cm A · 2 cm - -5 nC Q2 Example 6 (Cont.): Now suppose the +2 mC charge is moved from back from B to A? VA = -1800 V VB = +900 V VAB= VA– VB= -1800 V – 900 V This path is from high to low potential. VBA = -2700 V dWAB =-dU= -q(VA– VB) = -(2 x 10-6 C )(-2700 V) Work = +5.40 mJ E-field does positive work. dU decreased so The work is done BY the E-field this time !
