The dome of a Van de Graaff generator receives a charge of 5 x 10^-4 C. Find the strength of the electric field in the following situations. a. inside the dome in N/C.
b. at the surface of the dome, assuming it has a radius of 3.0 m in N/C.
c. 8.0 m from the center of thedome in N/C.

well, you would divide 135 by 33 to get your answer. then that is how many seconds it would take. boardman should fly about 132 m or 4.090909090909091 seconds.

electrical potential energy =0.072 j

explanation:

electrical potential energy is given by

u= q δv

q= charge=6 c

δv= potential difference and is given by

δv= e d

e= electric field

d= distance=5 mm=0.005 m

δv=2.4 (0.005)=0.012 v

now electric potential energy= u= q δv

u=6 (0.012)

u=0.072 j
