Chapter 26 The Electric Field (The E-Field of a Continuous Charge Distribution)
Last time… • Dipole Moment • E-field of a dipole on the dipoleaxis • E-field of a dipole in the bisecting plane Notice: r is distance measured from the center of dipole. +q s -q
Picturing the E-Field… Two ways: • Electric Field Vectors • Electric Field Lines
Electric Field Line Rules: • Lines start on + charges and end on – charges. • As lines get closer, fields get stronger. • Arrows point in direction of force on a positive test charge. • Force is tangent to field lines. • Field lines CAN’T cross.
Quiz Question 1 The diagram shows the electric field lines due to two charged metal plates. We can conclude that: • The upper plate is positive and the lower plate is negative. • A + charge at X would experience the same force if it were placed at Y. • A + charge X experiences a greater force than if it were placed at Z. • A + charge at X experiences less force than if it were placed at Z. • A - charge at X could have it’s weight balanced by the electrical force.
