A rod (length = 2.0 m) is uniformly charged and has a total charge of 5.0 nC. What is the electric potential (relative to zero at infinity) at a point which lies along the axis of the rod and is 3.0 m from the center of the rod?
 a. 22 V
  b. 19 V
  c. 16 V
  d. 25 V
  e. 12 V

Question 2

A nonuniform linear charge distribution given by l(x) = bx, where b is a constant, is distributed along the x axis from x = 0 to x = +L. If b = 40 nC/m2 and L = 0.20 m, what is the electric potential (relative to a potential of zero at infinity) at the point y = 2L on the y axis?
 a. 19 V
  b. 17 V
  c. 21 V
  d. 23 V
  e. 14 V

For about 100 years, scientists thought that peptic ulcers were caused by stress, spicy food, and alcohol. Later, researchers added stomach acid to the list of causes and began treating ulcers with antacids. Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.
