Question
The large figure below shows the equipotential surfaces for a long corner-shaped conductor and a long round conductor, both in a square metal enclosure. The square enclosure is at ground potential (0 volts), the corner-shaped conductor is at + 4,000 volts, and the cylinder-shaped conductor is at -4,000 volts. The intermediate voltage contours are 1000 volts apart. The labels are in kV.
A) Calculate the work required to move a charge of -0.59x10-12 C from `g' to `a'.
B) the magnitude of the electric field at `j' .

Calculate the work required to move a charge of -0.59x10-12 C from 'g' to 'a'. the magnitude of the electric field at 'j' .Explanation / Answer
a)
W=qdV =(-0.59*10^-12)(-1000-1000)
W=1.18*10^-9 J
