The electric field from two charges in the plane of the paper is represented by the dashed lines and arrows below. Select a response for each statement below. (Use 'North' towards top of page, and 'East' to the right)

The magnitude of the E-field at Ris than at M.

The force on a (+) test charge at P is zero.

The magnitude of the charge on the left is that on the right.

The force on a (+) test charge at L is directed

The force on a (-) test charge at J is directed

The force on a (-) test charge at N is directed

The sign of the charge on the right is negative.

Chapter 23, problem 075 the figure shows a geiger counter, a device used to detect ionizing radiation (radiation that causes ionization of atoms). the counter consists of a thin, positively charged central wire surrounded by a concentric, circular, conducting cylindrical shell with an equal negative charge. thus, a strong radial electric field is set up inside the shell. the shell contains a low-pressure inert gas. a particle of radiation entering the device through the shell wall ionizes a few of the gas atoms. the resulting free electrons (e) are drawn to the positive wire. however, the electric field is so intense that, between collisions with gas atoms, the free electrons gain energy sufficient to ionize these atoms also. more free electrons are thereby created, and the process is repeated until the electrons reach the wire. the resulting "avalanche" of electrons is collected by the wire, generating a signal that is used to record the passage of the original particle of radiation. suppose the radius of the central wire is 24 âµm, the inner radius of the shell 2.3 cm, and the length of the shell 14 cm. if the electric field at the shell's inner wall is 2.8 ă— 104 n/c, what is the total positive charge on the central wire?

Red light strikes a metal surface and electrons are ejected. if violet light is now used with a 10% greater intensity, what will happen to the ejection rate (number of ejected electrons per second) and the maximum energy of the electrons? a) greater ejection rate; same maximum energyb) same ejection rate; greater maximum energyc) greater ejection rate; greater maximum energyd) same ejection rate; same maximum energye) none of the above answers are correct

Mechanical energy is when the amount of kinetic and potential energies added together remains the same. conserved created lost
