Questions and Answers

What is the method to calculate the electric field when charges are continuously distributed over a region of space?

  • Using the formula E = kq/r^2 for each charge in the distribution
  • Breaking up the region into little pieces and summing up the electric field over each piece (correct)
  • Measuring the average charge density of the region
  • Applying the concept of electric potential to the entire region

How is charge density specified when charges are continuously distributed over a region?

  • dq/dA for linear charge distribution, dq/dV for surface charge distribution, and dq/ds for volume charge distribution
  • dq/dx for linear charge distribution, dq/dA for surface charge distribution, and dq/dV for volume charge distribution
  • dq/ds for linear charge distribution, dq/dV for surface charge distribution, and dq/dA for volume charge distribution
  • dq/dV for linear charge distribution, dq/ds for surface charge distribution, and dq/dA for volume charge distribution (correct)

What does the method of finding the electric field from a continuous charge distribution involve?

  • Applying the concept of electromagnetic induction to the charge distribution
  • Measuring the average distance between charges in the distribution
  • Integrating the product of charge density and position vectors over the entire region (correct)
  • Summing up the electric potential at different points within the region
