are pointing in the correct direction!
a)
b)
c)
2) The arrows of electric field lines represent the direction that a ____________ charged test
body would move when placed inside the electric field.
3) A material in which electrons can move around freely, allowing it to easily become
charged, is called a(n) ______________
A material that cannot in which electrons cannot move around freely, preventing it from
building up a charge, is called a(n) ______________
4) Calculate the magnitude of the electrical field strength |E| on the surface of the balloon.
5) The charged balloon is held so that the surface of the balloon is 0.2 m away from the
student’s hair. Calculate the magnitude of the electrical field strength |E| at the student’s
hair.
Hint: what is the distance of the hair from the center of the balloon?

7) If Thor holds his hammer so that the center of the hammer is at a distance (r) of 1 m
away from his head, calculate the strength of the electric field |E| at Thor's head.
8) If Thor throws the hammer to a point where the center of the hammer is 5 m away from
his head, calculate the the strength of the electric field from this new distance. What is the
electric field strength at the new distance?
