Complete each of the following parts and show your work:
a.) Draw the electric field around a –3.0 × 10^–5 C point source charge. Draw the field lines and indicate their direction. Draw two different equipotential lines.
b.) Calculate the force between a –2 µC test point charge and this source charge at a distance of 4.5 cm.
(µC = 1.0 × 10^–6 C)
c.) If the test charge were moved closer to the source charge, would the change in its potential energy be positive, negative, or zero? Explain.
