got it! Thanks a lot!

Homework Statement Two capacitors are identical, except that one is empty and the other is filled with a dielectric (κ = 3.20). The empty capacitor is connected to a 11.0-V battery. What must be the potential difference across the plates of the capacitor filled with a dielectric such that it...

Homework Statement Charges of -q and +2q are fixed in place, with a distance d = 6.00 m between them. A dashed line is drawn through the negative charge, perpendicular to the line between the charges. On the dashed line, at a distance L from the negative charge, there is at least one spot...

Homework Statement A long, thin rod (length = 4.0 m) lies along the x axis, with its midpoint at the origin. In a vacuum, a +6.0 C point charge is fixed to one end of the rod, and a -6.0 C point charge is fixed to the other end. Everywhere in the x, y plane there is a constant external...

Thanks! I got it right, and because I changed my calculator back to degrees I also was able to figure out why another problem wasn't working - Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your help, It's good to know I'm not crazy hah

Homework Statement The drawing shows three point charges fixed in place. The charge at the coordinate origin has a value of q1 = +8.02 C; the other two have identical magnitudes, but opposite signs: q2 = -4.73 C and q3 = +4.73 C. (a) Determine the net force exerted on q1 by the other two...

Homework Statement Two spherical objects are separated by a distance of 1.98 x 10-3 m. The objects are initially electrically neutral and are very small compared to the distance between them. Each object acquires the same negative charge due to the addition of electrons. As a result, each...
