Membrane potential, it’s the difference in electrical charge across the membrane.
The electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity
<h3>What is the electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge?</h3>
The electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge is E = kq/r² where
- k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
- q = 4.0 μC = 4.0 × 10 C and
- r = distance of charge from origin = x₁ - 0 = 2.0 m - 0 m = 2.0 m
<h3>What is the electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge?</h3>
The electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge is E = kq'/r² where
- k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
- q' = -4.0 μC = -4.0 × 10 C and
- r = distance of charge from origin = 0 - x₂ = 0 - (-2.0 m) = 0 m + 2.0 m = 2.0 m
Since both electric fields are equal in magnitude and directed along the negative x-axis, the net electric field at the origin is
E" = E + E'
= -2E
= -2kq/r²
<h3>What is the electric potential at the origin?</h3>
So, the electric potential at the origin is V = -∫₂⁰E".dr
= -∫₂⁰-2kq/r².dr
Since E and dr = dx are parallel and r = x, we have
= -∫₂⁰-2kqdxcos0/x²
= 2kq∫₂⁰dx/x²
= 2kq[-1/x]₂⁰
= -2kq[1/x]₂⁰
= -2kq[1/0 - 1/2]
= -2kq[∞ - 1/2]
= -2kq[∞]
= -∞
So, the electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity

Let's cut through the weeds and the trash
and get down to the real situation:
A stone is tossed straight up at 5.89 m/s .
Ignore air resistance.
Gravity slows down the speed of any rising object by 9.8 m/s every second.
So the stone (aka Billy-Bob-Joe) continues to rise for
(5.89 m/s / 9.8 m/s²) = 0.6 seconds.
At that timer, he has run out of upward gas. He is at the top
of his rise, he stops rising, and begins to fall.
His average speed on the way up is (1/2) (5.89 + 0) = 2.945 m/s .
Moving for 0.6 seconds at an average speed of 2.945 m/s,
he topped out at
(2.945 m/s) (0.6 s) = 1.767 meters above the trampoline.
With no other forces other than gravity acting on him, it takes him
the same time to come down from the peak as it took to rise to it.
(0.6 sec up) + (0.6 sec down) = 1.2 seconds until he hits rubber again.
<u>Answer</u>
The combined displacement is 2km north
<u>Explanation</u>
Since displacement is a vector quantity, we take into account the direction.
Good for us all the displacement vectors are in the same dimension, so we can make north positive and south negative or vice-versa.
We now add to obtain,
This will simplify to
Therefore the combined displacement is 2km north
