If you have two particles of charge 3q and -q along the x axis how can you mathematically demonstrate the zero electric field point past the -q charge?

objects with charges and q and 3q are placed on a lineBesides an infinite distance away from the charges, where else can the electric field possibly be zero


What is coulmb?

(coulomb) A quantity of electric charge. Passage of 1 coulomb per second along a wire is called 1 amp (ampere) of electric current.

Electric field lines show the strength and what of an electric field?

Direction and electric flux density. Representing an electric field (and this works with other fields also) with lines is a sophisticated and time honored tradition. The density of lines in any region of space is proportional to the strength (magnitude) of the field in that region of space. The direction of the field is along the direction of the line at each position on each of the lines. In such a graphical representation the field direction goes out from positive charge and in towards negative charge and the visualization usually has some indication of the sign of charge or direction of the field to give the information about direction of the vector field represented by the field lines.


Does electric field and electric field lines connected?

Yes. An electric field is represented by electric field lines. Electric field lines are a visual representation of the strength and direction of an electric field in a region of space. In the vicinity of any charge, there is an electric field and the strength of the electric field is proportional to the force that a test charge would experience if placed at the point. (That is a matter of definition of electric field.) Mother nature produces electric fields, but humans can not see electric fields. Humans invented the idea of field lines to create a mental picture of the field. The two most common ways are to draw lines in space or to draw a collection of arrows in space. In the case of arrows, they are vector representations of the strength and direction of the electric field at the point in space where each arrow is drawn. Representing an electric field (and this works with other fields also) with lines is a sophisticated and time honored tradition. The density of lines in any region of space is proportional to the strength (magnitude) of the field in that region of space. The direction of the field is along the direction of the line at each position on each of the lines. In such a graphical representation the field direction goes out from positive charge and in towards negative charge and the visualization usually has some indication of the sign of charge or direction of the field to give the information about direction of the vector field represented by the field lines. There is a small caveat. It is not only charge that can produce electric fields. An electric field can be produced by a changing magnetic field. This is technologically important (since electric motors work on this principle) and scientifically fascinating, requiring a somewhat more sophisticated aspect of electromagnetic theory, but ultimately the electric field or electric flux can be visualized with lines (or arrows) in a manner exactly as is done for stationary charges.

What electric charge crates a magnetic field?

Moving charges produce magnetic fields.Answer 2In other words, when the charge moves along a conductor it creates an electric current. The current induces a magnetic field around the conductor.


An electric dipole placed with its axis inclined at an angle to the direction of a uniform electric field experiences?

It experiences a torque but no force. As the dipole is placed at an angle to the direction of a uniform electric field it experiences two opposite and equal forces which are not along the same line. This develops a torque which aligns the dipole along the field. The dipole does not experience any force as the two forces cancel each other.


Why is helium's position not justified in periodic table?

Helium has 2 valence electrons and it should theoretically be placed along with group 2 elements. But since helium has completely filled orbitals (as do the noble gases), it is placed along with the noble gases.

How is the silicon applied to the silicon bracelets?

Silica is placed into an electric furnace along with coal, wood, or charcoal. The reaction of the two creates silicon. The Silicon is then placed into a desired mold and cooled, creating the silicon bracelet.

How a digital electric more useful than an analog electric meter?

in a digital meter you get a digital value of your measurement. but in analog meter you have to check the position of the pin along the scale and find out the value.


What are protons charge of?

Protons have a positive charge of +1. They are found in the nucleus along with neutrons. The nucleus has a positive charge because neutrons have no electric charge. The electrons have a negative charge, and are found surrounding the nucleus. Most of the volume is made up of the tiny electrons, but the mass comes from the nucleus of a compound.
