A66 Ch. 22 P 6,8,9,11,17, 18, 19, 23;
Visit and play PhET's Electric field hockey and answer these questions on your A66 HW
- How do you calculate the net force vector at any instant?
- How does the mass affect the puck’s motion?
- Now turn on the “Field” option.
Explain how this helps visualize what you are doing and predict the
object’s motion. Does the particle
follow the arrows at all times?
- What is electric field?
Does it exist at locations where there are no charges?
- Do you need the electric field to determine what the puck will do? Argue yes or no.
