Hmm okay, thanks for the responses! My teacher wasn't too clear with wording the question, so I'm not sure if isolated means no voltage is being supplied... So if a battery was supplying voltage, the voltage would stay the same but the charge would increase to make potential stay the same...

Homework Statement So my question is conceptual. I am trying to figure out in what direction an electron will move if it starts between two plates of a parallel plate capacitator. One of the plates is at 0V and the other is at 50V. Also, would placing a dielectric in a charged, isolated...

Okay, makes more sense now. Thanks!

Homework Statement A circuit consists of 7 sections of wire. The figure looks like a rectangle of length 9cm and width 5cm with a circle of diameter 3 cm cutting right through the middle of one of the 9cm sides so that the two sides of the circle are in parallel. Each of the sections of wire...

Homework Statement A -2 μC charge and a 10μC charge are separated by 15.0cm. At what point is the electric field zero? At what point is the electric potential zero? Homework Equations E=(kq1/r1^2)+(kq2/r2^2) V=kq1/r1 + kq2/r2 The Attempt at a Solution My main problem is with...

Wow, it's really that simple? Thanks, I really understand this a lot better. So to find phi, do I use θ(0)=Acos(phi), plug in the initial angle it was pulled back for the theta0, and solve for phi?

Homework Statement A simple pendulum of length 1m with bob mass 125g is pulled 15 degrees to the right and released at t=0.What are the phase constant and amplitude? Homework Equations θ(t)=Acos(ζt+phi) ---> my teacher gave us a weird symbol that I've never seen before, it has always...
