Question
B2
A metal sphere hangs from a string and has 4 kg of mass. The sphere has a charge of +3.5 pc. A uniform electric field is turned
on and directed to the right.
(a) Which way does the sphere move?
left
O right
(b) What is the electric force on the metal sphere if the magnitude of the electric field is 10 N/C?
(c) When the sphere reaches equilibrium, what is the angle that the string makes with the vertical axis (assuming the
same electric field as part (b)?
