41. MAINIDEA Suppose a friend asks you to explain how electric potential relates to
potential energy. Write a brief explanation that you could use to explain this concept to
a friend who does not understand the relationship between the two concepts.
42. Potential Difference What is the difference between electric potential energy and
electric potential difference?
44. Millikan Experiment When the net charge on an oil drop suspended in a Millikan
apparatus is changed, the drop begins to fall. How should you adjust the potential
difference between the conducting plates to bring the drop back into balance?
45. Charge and Potential Difference In the previous problem, if changing the potential
difference between the conducting plates has no effect on the falling drop, what does
this tell you about the new net charge on the drop?
46. Capacitance What is the magnitude of net charge on each conductor plate of a
0.47-μF capacitor when a potential difference of 12 V is applied across that capacitor?
48. Critical Thinking Explain how the charge in Figure 18 (in your textbook) continues to
build up on the metal dome of a Van de Graaff generator. In particular, why isn’t charge
repelled back onto the belt at point B?
