Field Lines
How to determine the field strength from the field lines?
The lines are crowed together when the field is strong and
spread apart where the field is weaker. The field strength is
proportional to the density of the lines.

Potential is Conservative
In mechanics, the definition of potential energy in terms of
the work done by the conservative force is U=-Wc.. The
negative sign tells us that positive work by the conservative
force leads to a decrease in potential energy.
Therefore, the change in potential energy, associated with
an infinitesimal displacement ds, is

We infer that 1/R: The surface charge density on each
sphere is inversely proportional to the radius.
The regions with the smallest radii of curvature have the
greatest surface charge densities.
51
If the field strength is great enough (about 3x106 V/m for dry
air) it can cause an electrical discharge in air.
How does the breakdown occur in high voltage transmission
line?
52
Induced charge
on metal sphere
The potential at the surface of a charged sphere is V=kQ/R
and the field strength is E=kQ/R2. So, for a given breakdown
field strength, breakdown voltage is proportional to the
radius, VB R.
The potential of a sphere of radius 10 cm may be raised to
3x105 V before breakdown. On the other hand, a 0.05 mm
dust particle can initiate a discharge at 150 V.
