Does system energy superpose? That is, if you have one system of charges with total stored energy W1, and a second charge distribution with W2 if you superpose these charge distributions, is the total energy of the new system simply W1+W2? A) Yes B) No
r Two charges, +q and q, are a distance r apart. As the charges are slowly moved together, the total field energy e t 2 0 E d 2 (Come up with two different reasons for your answer. ) A) increases B) decreases C) remains constant
+Q -Q A parallel-plate capacitor has +Q on one plate, -Q on the other. The plates are isolated so the charge Q cannot change. As the plates are pulled apart, the total electrostatic energy stored in the capacitor A) increases B) decreases C) remains constant. (Come up with two different reasons for your answer. )
