Part 2 Electricity

Static electricity

(a) A positively charged particle hangs from a vertical insulating string. The particle is
brought above an electrically neutral metallic sphere that rests on an insulating support.

insulating string

positively charged particle

metallic sphere

insulating support

By considering the distribution of charge on the sphere, state and explain whether the
tension in the string holding the charged particle will be less than, equal to or greater
than the weight of the particle. (Assume that the mass of the string is negligible.) [3]

(b) Diagrams A, B and C show a sequence of events in which:


• A: the sphere in (a) is earthed (grounded),
• B: the earth is then removed while the charged particle remains in place,
• C: finally the charged particle is taken away.

A B C

(i) On each of the diagrams A, B and C draw the distribution of charge on the sphere. [3]

(ii) Explain why work has to be done on the charged particle to move it away
from [2]
the sphere.
