ELECTRIC POTENTIAL OF A SYSTEM

- amount of work needed to move a unit positive charge from a reference point to a specific point
inside the field without producing any acceleration

+ + + +

- - - -

- electric potential (used in explaining concept of electricity/electrostatics), voltage (used in

circuitry), potential difference (circuitry din) = same lang

- gaano karaming work kailangan para mamove yung isang charge from one point to another

- we talk abt the work needed to move the charge

ELECTRIC POTENTIAL DUE TO POINT CHARGES

E = k q/r

fe = electrostatic force

k = permittivity of free space = 9x10^9 Nm^2/C^2

q = proton/electron

R = separation distance

ELECTRIC POTENTIAL OF ENTIRE SYSTEM

E= E k q/r

*yung malaki E is yung summation churva

SAMPLE PROBLEM
9 protons and 8 electrons are separated by a distance of 6.3x10m in a 12.5 current carrying wire.
find the following:

a. electric potential due to positive point charge

b. electric potential due to negative point charge

c. electric potential of entire system

ADDITIONALS
- point and test charge as hypothetically the same unit

- but:

- point charge is specific location sa electric field

- test charge is in terms of interaction with the charge kaya tawag test charge bc its
repulsion or attraction
Physics Pointers (100 points) J. Electric Potential
A. Constants (+) point charge

Ep = (kq1) / r

e = 1.6x10-19C

1C = 6.25x1018e (positive talaga yung 18 ha)

(-) point charge

k = 9x10-9 Nm22/C2

Ep = (kq2) / r

B. Electrostatic Force
K. Entire System of Electric Potential
Fe = (kq1q2) / r2

C. Electrostatics
Ep = E (Fe/q) / r

D. Charges (Elementary, Point, Test Charges) *yung malaki E is yung summation churva

E. Electric Field Intensity/Configurations

(know how to draw these)
F. Electric Potential (relation to general stuff p01n+3rZx i2 b0$$1nG
abt work) Identification (concept-heavy)
G. Electroscope (know the parts and the
things happening sa experiment) True or False (concept-heavy)
Multiple Choice (concept-heavy
H. Electric Field Intensity
(+) point charge
din ata)
E = (kq1) / r2
Diagramming (draw given the
(-) point charge

given configurations)
E = (kq2) / r2
Problem Solving
I. Entire System of Elec. Field Intensity *Bring pencil for diagramming just in case para di baboy drawing
E = Fe/q
*Di kasama top/bottom thing sa exam
