The following questions will guide you through some qualitative understanding of finding an electric field if the distribution of electric potential is known. The following picture displays a map of potential difference (vertical axis) for an unknown configuration of charges as a function of x- and y-coordinates (horizontal axes). What is the force experienced by a charged particle placed in the electric field of these charges along direction 17 direction 2? O non-zero and constant O non-zero and constant O impossible to tell non-zero and non-constant non-zero and non-constant same as in direction 1 same as in direction 2 zero O zero O impossible to tell
A charged particle is placed into an electric field of the charges, whose distribution of the potential difference (shown on the vertical axis) as function of x- and y-coordinates (shown on horizontal axes) is displayed in the picture below. The particle is moving along the trajectory shown by a black curve. At which point 1 or 2 along the trajectory does particle experience the greatest magnitude of the force? impossible to tell the forces in an electric field are always the same at any location O2 the forces will be the same for the same potential difference experienced 1 Explain your reasoning.
