The paths of two particles, A and B, which pass between the plates of an electric field designated by '+'
and '¬', are shown below.
One is a "cation" with a 1+ charge, and the other is an "anion" with a 1¬ charge. The dashed line in the
center represents the path of an uncharged particle.
(a) Identify each particle as an anion or a cation.
Particle A
Particle B
(b) What is the approximate ratio of the mass of B to the mass of A (the B/A ratio)? Express
your answer as number (like 3.8 or 0.79), not as a fraction (like 7/6 or 7:6). (Hint : Can you
tell which particle is heavier?)

Look at the two scenarios below. In I the people do not have to do anything to keep the two charged
spheres close to each other. In II, the two people are having a hard time keeping these two charged
spheres close to each other (notice the blue sweat drops dripping off their faces). There is also a plot of
energy versus distance shown to the right of scenario I. Based on these observations, choose the correct
description for the scenario indicated.
a) If the charge on sphere C is positive, the charge on sphere D is
b) The blue point labeled "1" on the graph corresponds to
c) The scenario in which the spheres are most stable (i.e., lowest energy) is

Rank the following charge/distance combinations from lowest energy to highest energy. Your answer
should be a four letter "word" made up of the letters a, b, c and d. For example, if you think the order is
a (lowest energy), then b, then c, then d (highest energy), you should enter the "word" abcd in the
answer box. Note, the word has no spaces or commas.
a) A ¬3 charge and a +2 charge separated by 3 units of distance
b) A +2 charge and a +2 charge separated by 4 units of distance
