    Understanding Thin Lens Equations: Solving for Image Distances and Focal Length

    Homework Statement I am given 5 distances to place the object relative to the lens. I then need to calculate each of the images distances for all 5 and record them. Once I have that done, I am to conduct a graph of 1/q vs 1/p. I then need to answer these questions: 1- Is the slope of your...

    Calculating Voltage Drop and Current Through a Voltmeter

    so if its V=(1E-3)(100,000) = 100 v across the resistor its 100 V across the voltmeter for part a? For b you then take 100v=I(10E7) = 1E-6 A?

    Calculating Voltage Drop and Current Through a Voltmeter

    Well given 1ma over the resistor you can do V = (1E-3)(100,000) which is the voltage drop over the resistor...without the total voltage how can I find the voltage drop over the volt meter? current through voltmeter?

    What are the correct answers to this Equipotential Contours Homework statement?

    I know its not right because with it marked true, it was my very first response (the above answers with 3 being true.) I thought that was right to begin with but its not.

    What are the correct answers to this Equipotential Contours Homework statement?

    even if number three was true, its still not all right?

    What are the correct answers to this Equipotential Contours Homework statement?

    Homework Statement 2. Relevant thoughts Here, I numbered them down and put why I though those answers were what I have above 1- since 0V, its PE is zero 2- Closest contour lines, largest charge 3- Q1 is farther back from 0v, making it the largest negative 4- above 0V so it has a positive...

    How Does Charge Polarity Affect Electrostatic Equilibrium Position?

    so the answer should be negative then? I am still having trouble ugh.

    How Does Charge Polarity Affect Electrostatic Equilibrium Position?

    Homework Statement An electric point charge of Q1 = 5.23 nC is placed at the origin of the real axis. Another point charge of Q2 = 1.89 nC is placed at a position of p = 2.63 m on the real axis. At which position can a third point charge of q = -2.62 nC be placed so that the net...
