The diagram shows 2 identical charged particles. How does the potential energy and the force of repulsion changes as the charges are bought closer together?

A10nc charge sits at a point in space where the magnitude of the electric field is 1500 n/c. what will the magnitude of the field be if the 10 nc charge is replaced by a 20 nc charge? assume the system is big enough to consider the charges as small test charges.

Two conductors, a and b, are each in the shape of a tetrahedron. but of different sizes. they are charged in the following manner: 1. tetrahedron a is charged from an electrostatic generator to charge q. 2. tetrahedron a is briefly touched to tetrahedron b. 3. steps 1 and 2 are repeated until the charge on tetrahedron b reaches a maximum value. if the charge on tetrahedron b was q/4 after the first time it touched tetrahedron a. what is the final charge qbmax on tetrahedron b?

Athin nonconducting rod with a uniform distribution of positive charge q is bent into a circle of radius r. the central perpendicular axis through the ring is a z-axis, with the origin at the center of the ring. a) what is the magnitude of the electric field due to the rod at z = 0? n/c (b) what is the magnitude of the electric field due to the rod at z = infinity? n/c (c) in terms of r, at what positive value of z is that magnitude maximum? r (d) if r = 4.00 cm and q = 9.00 µc, what is the maximum magnitude? n/c
