Document Summary

Disclaimer: brian has zero intel about what will be covered on the midterm. This is a col- lection of problems that will force you to review concepts that were covered in lecture, homework, and quizzes. Each charge is xed in place a distance r from the origin. Note that q1 = q5 and q2 = q4. (a) calculate the net electric elds (magnitude and direction) at the origin due to the ve charges. Report your answer in terms of q1, q2, q3, r, and fundamental constants of nature like k and 0. (b) a charge +q is now placed at the origin. Determine the the net electric force (magnitude and direction) that the charge +q experiences. Explain your reasoning, and show your work: a total amount of positive charge q is distributed uniformly along a thin rod of length a.
