The electrostatic potential is given as a function of x in figure (a) and (b). Calculate the corresponding electric fields in regions A, B, C and D. Plot the electric field as a function of x for figure (b).
A spark plug in a bike or a car is used to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the engine. It consists of two electrodes separated by a gap of around 0.6 mm gap as shown in the figure.
To create the spark, an electric field of magnitude 3 x 106Vm-1 is required,
- What potential difference must be applied to produce the spark?
- If the gap is increased, does the potential difference increase, decrease or remains the same?
- Find the potential difference if the gap is 1 mm.
A point charge of +10 µC is placed at a distance of 20 cm from another identical point charge of +10 µC. A point charge of -2 µC is moved from point a to b as shown in the figure. Calculate the change in potential energy of the system? Interpret your result.
