PHIL 211 Chapter 19: Sociocentric Thought

Two identical infinite uniformly charged sheets are parallel
to the x-y plane. One sheet has a positive surface density ofcharge and
located distance d in the positive z direction from the origin. Theother one
has the same charge density, but loctaed distance d in the negativez direction
from the origin. Use superposition to find the electric field(magnitude and
direction) due to the two sheets in three regions: (a) z > d,(b) -d < z < d
and (c) z < -d.

(a) What magnitude F is required for the decelerating force?
__ N

(b) What distance d do they travel while decelerating?
__m

(c) What work W is done on them by the decelerating force?
__ kJ

(d) What is F for a deceleration of 7.0 m/s2?
__N

(e) What is d for a deceleration of 7.0 m/s2?
__m

(f) What is W for a deceleration of 7.0 m/s2?
__ kJ
