Engineers discover that the electric potential between two electrodes can be modeled as , where is a constant, is the distance from the first electrode in the direction of the second, and is the distance between the electrodes. What is the electric field strength midway between the electrodes?
Estimate the electric fields and at points 1 and 2 in Figure Q26.4. Don’t forget that is a vector.

Figure Q26.10 shows a battery with metal wires attached to each end. What are the potential differences ?

Consider a uniformly charged sphere of radius R and total cAlC charge Q. The electric field outside the sphere is simply that of a point charge Q. In Chapter 24, we used Gauss's law to find that the electric field inside the sphere is radially outward with field strength
a. The electric potential outside the sphere is that of a point charge Q. Find an expression for the electric potentialat position r inside the sphere. As a reference, let at the surface of the sphere.
b. What is the ratio
c. Graph V versus r for 0 r 3 R.
A typical cell has a membrane potential of , meaning that the potential inside the cell is less than the potential outside due to a layer of negative charge on the inner surface of the cell wall and a layer of positive charge on the outer surface. This effectively makes the cell wall a charged capacitor. Because a cell's diameter is much larger than the wall thickness, it is reasonable to ignore the curvature of the cell and think of it as a parallel-plate capacitor. How much energy is stored in the electric field of a diameter cell with a thick cell wall whose dielectric constant is ?
