    page and write On back in the problem space.
    ________________________________________________
    1. Multiple Guess (3 pts) Find the answer which best fits the
    question and write it in the space provided.

    a) An electron, free to move when placed in an electric field,


    moves b) What is the magnitude and direction of the electric field
    a) along the field line, opposite to the field. b) along the at point C due to both charges? Direction __________
    field line, in the field direction. c) perpendicular to the
    field line. d) unaffected by the field. _____

    a) electrons move onto the rod; b) protons move onto the
    rod; c) electrons move onto the silk; c) protons move
    onto the silk.
    _____ c) Two metal spheres, one with charge 3.0 µ C and the other
    with charge −6.0 µ C are brought together until the excess
    c) Charge A (blue) is attracted to B (red) and A is attracted to charge is distributed between them. How many electrons
    charge C (green). What is true about B and C? are on each sphere after they are separated?
    a) They attract each other. b) They repel each other.
    c) They neither attract nor repel each other. d) This
    question cannot be answered. _____

    d) Two large metal parallel plates are separated by 0.40 cm.


    the electric field between the plates is 4.0 × 104 N/C. Find
    the speed that an electron would attain if it were
    released from rest at the negative plate.
    2. Definition/Principle (3 pts)

    a) Three equal magnitude point charges (above right) are


    fixed to the corners of an equilateral triangle. At which
    corner is the net force acting on the charge directed
    parallel to the x axis, A, B, or C?
    _____
    b) Sketch the electric field lines all around the charges.
    ________________________________________________
