Answer: A reference point

Explanation: If an object is in motion then its distance from another object is changing. Whether an object is moving or not depends on your point of view. For example, a woman riding on a bus is not moving in relation to the seat she is sitting on, but she is moving in relation to the buildings the bus passes. A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.

How should the distance, D, between two point charges, q1 and q2, be changed to double their electric potential energy

Licemer1 [7]

The electrostatic potential energy, U, of one point charge q at position d in the presence of an electric field E is defined as the negative of the work W done by the electrostatic force to bring it from the reference position d to that position

$u \: = \: \frac{kq1q2}{d}$

Thus, to double the electric potential energy U we need to reduce the distance of separation by half (1/2) because they are inversely proportion

Consider an oil droplet of mass m and charge q. We want to determine the charge on the droplet in a Millikan-type experiment. We

Katen [24]

Answer:

$q=\frac{mg}{E_o}$

Explanation:

Given:

Charge = <em>q</em>

Electric field strength = $E_o$

weight of the droplet = <em>mg</em>

The charge is suspended motionless. This is because the electric force on the charge is balanced by the weight of the droplet.

electric force on charged droplet, $F=qE_o$

This is balanced by the weight, $mg$

Equating the two:

$qE_o=mg\\\Rightarrow q=\frac{mg}{E_o}$
