    Module 1 - Electric Charge, Field and Lines Guide Questions

    Uploaded by

    Edrielle
    This document provides guide questions for students on the topic of electric charge, field and lines for Physics 41. It includes questions that ask students to concisely discuss how objects can be charged by induction and conduction. It also asks students to explain why electric charges move freely in conductors but not insulators, and to discuss the significance of semiconductors. The document provides two problems for students to fully solve - one asking about minimizing the net electric force on a third charge placed between two other charges, and another asking about the electric field in the center of a square with charges at each corner.

    GUIDE QUESTIONS

    Module 1: Electric Charge, Field and Lines


    Subject: Physics 41
    Teacher: Prof. Rommel J. Jagus
    17 March 2021
    Guide Questions
    Part A. Answer the question/s concisely.
    1. Objects can be charged in either by conduction or induction. Discuss the
    process on how does an object can be charged (a) by induction, (b) by
    conduction.
    2. Why do electric charges are freely to move in conductors and not freely to
    move in insulators?
    3. Explain the importance/significance of semiconductors in our world today.

    Guide Questions
    Part B. Answer each problem with complete solution.
    1. Two charges q1=6μC, q2=−30μC, are L = 12 cm apart. A third charge is to be
    placed on the line between the two charges. How far from q1 should the third
    charge be placed so that the net electric force on the third charge is minimized?
    2. Four charges are placed at the corners of a square 0.1m on a side. Determine
    the electric field in the center of the square.
