  3. Force, field, energy, potential or Phys 133 – Chapter 29

  4. Fields and potentials 1. a) E = 0 V/m in throughout some region of space, can you conclude that the potential V = 0 in this region?b) V = 0 V throughout some region of space. Can you conclude that the electric field E = 0 V/m in this region? Phys 133 – Chapter 29

  5. Graphically convert between E and V2. The top graph shows Ex vs. x for an electric field parallel to the x-axis.a) Draw the graph of V vs. x in this region of space. Let V = 0 at x = 0m. Add an appropriate scale on the vertical axis. (Hint: integration is the area under the curve)b) Draw a contour map above the x-axis on a diagram like the one below-right and label your equipotential lines every 20 V. 0V has been drawn already.C) Draw several electric field vectors on top of the contour map.

  31. Dielectrics change the potential difference • The potential between to parallel plates of a capacitor changes when the material between the plates changes. It does not matter if the plates are rolled into a tube as they are in Figure 24.13 or if they are flat as shown in Figure 24.14.

  33. Field lines as dielectrics change • Moving from part (a) to part (b) of Figure 24.15 shows the change induced by the dielectric. In vacuum, energy density is In dielectric

  34. Examples to consider, capacitors with and without dielectrics • If capacitor is disconnected from circuit, inserting a dielectric changes decreases electric field, potential and increases capacitance, but the amount of charge on the capacitor is unchanged. • If the capacitor is hooked up to a power supply with constant voltage, the voltage must remain the same, but capacitance and charge increase
