- A 38-g ball of copper has a net charge of 1 μC. What fraction of the copper's electrons have been removed? (Each neutral copper atom has 29 protons and 29 electrons, and copper has an atomic mass of 63.5 a.m.u.)arrow_forwardA solid plastic ball has a radius of 6.0 cm and has a charge of +3.o nC ( in nano-Coulombs) that is uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Imagine there is a proton being held 1.5 cm away from the surface of the solid plastic ball, and then the proton is released. The proton will accelerate away from the ball, as we know, due to the repulsive electric force. Assuming the ball doesn't move, how fast is the proton moving when it is 5.5 cm away from the surface of the ball?arrow_forwardA 8-g charged plastic sphere charged to 75 µC is on top of a plastic spring with spring constant k = 400 N/m, which has a relaxed length of 10 cm. You then place another charged object 1 cm above (not touching) the sphere. Now, the spring is 9.5 cm long. Find the charge on the new second object.arrow_forward

A second uncharged conducting sphere of radius r2 = 0.42 m is then connected to the first by a thin conducting wire. The spheres are separated by a very large distance compared to their size.

How much surface charge density must the plate have to repel the ball so that the string makes and angle of 5.03 degrees from the vertical. Give your answer to 3 significant figures and in units of nC/m/m (nanoCoulombs per meter squared: Blackboard has trouble with squred units).
