Note:I decided to change the format a petty. And again, do non only jump directly to the reply, that volition Non help you pass exams fifty-fifty with open up notes. Be sure to ask any questions you have in the comment section and I will endeavour to reply them every bit apace as possible.

Note 2:U = potential free energy (PE). I utilize these notations interchangeably.

Looking for a specific problem? Attempt ctrl+f (⌘+f on macs) and searching for a snippet of the problem, or scroll down as the problems are listed in society of assignment.


i. Walker 20.9. The Earth has an electrical field with a magnitude of approximately 104 V/grand about its surface. What is the potential difference betwixt a point on the basis and a indicate on pinnacle the Washington Monument (555 ft high)?

Equation:
|ΔV| = EΔd

Given Values:Listen your units! Nosotros want to convert any non-SI into SI units!
East = 104 Five/m
d = 555 ft

Hint 1:This is a pretty straight forward question. Potential difference is the product of the electric field and distance between the ground and the point at the tiptop of the monument.
Hint 2:Are y'all using the right units? There are 0.305 meters in i foot.

Answer:
|ΔV| = (104 V/m)(555 ft)(0.305 thou/ft) = 17604.half-dozen V

I'm nonetheless getting the wrong answer!
1. Check your calculations and units! This is the well-nigh common reason for me to become a wrong answer.


two. Walker 20.14. Living cells actively "pump" positive sodium ions (Na+) from within the cell to exterior the cell. This process is referred to as pumping because piece of work must be washed on the ions to move them from the negatively charged inner surface of the membrane to the positively charged outer surface. Assume that the electric potential is 0.080 V higher outside the jail cell than inside the cell, and that the prison cell membrane is 0.12 µm thick. (It is estimated that as much equally 20% of the free energy we consume in a resting country is used in operating this "sodium pump.")

(a) Calculate the work that must be done to move ane sodium ion from within the cell to exterior.
(b) If the thickness of the cell membrane is increased, does your answer to role (a) increase, decrease, or stay the aforementioned? Explain.

Equation:
W = CΔV

Given Values:Mind your units! We want to convert whatsoever non-SI into SI units!
ΔV = 0.080 V
d = 0.12 µm
qNa+ = i.6 ten 10-nineteen C (This is because a sodium ion has a positive charge — i.e., one less electron — so information technology has the charge of +east. You should memorize the charge of e.)

Hint 1:Again a very straightforward question but at that place are tricky! They give yous a value that yous don't actually need to utilize to confuse you.

Reply:
ΔU = W = CΔV = (1.6 x 10-19 C)(0.080 Five) = 1.28 x 10-20 J
As yous can see, distance does not matter in the calculation of work then whether the thickness of the membrane is increased or decreased has no impact on the answer to function (a).

I'm still getting the wrong answer!
1. Check your calculations and units! This is the most mutual reason for me to become a wrong answer.


 three.Walker xx.22. A proton has an initial speed of four.1 x5 m/due south.

To make calculations easier, rearrange to:
3.4
Plug and solve for ΔV = vf – 5i = 877.27 V = 0.88 kV.

(b) Answer:
If you plug in (1/iii)fivei for vf instead of 0 and solve for ΔV, you become ΔV = 779.viii 5 = 0.78 kV.

(c) Reply:
If you plug in (one/3)KEi for KEf and solve for ΔV, you get ΔV = 584.85 V = 0.58 kV.

Hint 1: Y'all have three points and two distances between them, and you are looking for the work needed to movement ane of the charges. So how do y'all need to put together the needed equation?
Hint 2: What happens to the final electric potential if you move a point charge abroad past a altitude of infinity?

(a) Respond:
6.3
Plug in and solve for West = 1.43 J.

(b) Answer:
In part (a), we were trying to take a positive charge away from a negative charge. As yous know, opposite charges attract so this will accept an actress effort (positive work). However, if we try to take away a negative charge from a negative accuse we actually get a negative piece of work as they repel each other. Therefore, the work required in this example is less than what we got in office (a).

(c) Respond:
Modify the equation from part (a) to stand for to moving the other charge:
6.4
Plug in and solve for W = -0.82 J.
