ANSWER: 250 VOLTS PER METER or 250 NEWTONS PER COULOMB
34 : Used normally, a 150-watt, 120 volt light bulb requires how many amps of current?
ANSWER: 1.25 AMPS
35 : If 10 joules of energy are required to move 5 coulombs of charge between two points, the potential difference between the two points is equal to how many volts?
ANSWER: 2 VOLTS
36 : For a negative point charge, the electric field vectors:
w) circle the charge
x) point radially in toward the charge
y) point radially away from the charge
z) cross at infinity
ANSWER: X -- POINT RADIALLY IN TOWARD THE CHARGE
37: For an infinite sheet of positive charge, the electric field lines:
w) run parallel to the sheet of charge
x) are perpendicular to the sheet of charge and point in toward the sheet
y) are perpendicular to the sheet of charge and point away from the sheet
z) fall off as one over r squared
ANSWER: Y -- ARE PERPENDICULAR TO THE SHEET OF CHARGE AND POINT AWAY
38: Five coulombs of charge are placed on a thin-walled conducting shell. Once the charge has come to rest, the electric potential inside the hollow conducting shell is found to be:
w) zero
x) uniform inside the sphere and equal to the electric potential on the surface of the sphere
y) smaller than the electric potential outside the sphere
z) varying as one over r squared.
ANSWER: X -- UNIFORM INSIDE THE SPHERE AND EQUAL TO THE
