Does Size Matter?

Does size matter?

See this quantum charge being 13e.  I think it is 1πe.   Without the right charge, then the dipole is wrong... What the Fn, F?  What is the nature of electrostatic forces?  What if space is not is electrically neutral?


Is there a force on the dipole simply because physically the negative charge is smaller and the field lines are denser where they terminates on its surface?  The field line tends to space apart so there is a net force rightwards?

If space is not neutral but has a net negative charge, then dipole as a whole will experience a net force due the physical shape of the dipole.  Consider a cone with open radius  R1  and  R2 along R, an elemental surface ds on the cove surface is given by

ds=dp.dh

dp=R.dϕ,   dh=dxcos(θ)

ds=R.dϕ.dxcos(θ)

The elemental charge on the surface is,

dq=σ.ds     where    σ is the surface charge density of space around the cone.  The potential at the apex is

dV=14πεoσ.dsr

Since,

r=xcos(θ)     R=x.tan(θ)

dV=14πεoσtan(θ)dϕdx

x cancels away.

V=σ4πεo.tan(θ)2π0R2/tan(θ)R1/tan(θ)dx

V=σ2εo.tan(θ)R2R1dx1tan(θ)

E=dVdx=σ2εo

There is net force on the structure through the apex along the x direction.  This might be the perpetual force on the dipole that gives it light speed.  Direction, but no magnitude to be conclusive.
