Problem 1: Three charges arranged at the corners of an equilateral triangle. Given the separation and magnitude of each charge, calculate the electrostatic force on one of the charges due to the other two.
Problem 2: Four point charges are arranged at the corners of a square. Given the separation and the magnitude of each charge, calculate the electric field at the position of one of the charges, and use this result to calculate the force on that charge due to the other three charges.
Problem 3: Three charges arranged at the corners of an equilateral triangle. Given the separation and magnitude of each charge, calculate the electric field at the position of one of the charges and then calculate the electrostatic force on that charge.
Problem 4: Find the point along the line joining two charges where the electric field is zero.
Problem 5: A continuous line of charge lies along the x-axis, extending from x = +x0 to positive infinity. The line carries a uniform charge density ëC/m. Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the origin due to this charge distribution.
Problem 6: A Physlet problem: find the net charge of the distribution. All charges are equal.
Problem 7: A Physlet problem: find the net charge of the distribution. The charges are not all equal.
Problem 8: A physlet problem. Find the unknown charge by draging the test-charge.
