Question
So what needs to be found is the charge q in coulombs, and the number of particles that make up this charge. The data values are: Length (L) of string and ball = 0.23 m Distance (r) between the balls when repelled = 0.08 m Mass (m) of each ball = 6 x 10^-6 kg Calculate the charge q (in coulombs ) on each of the pith balls from the results Calculate the number of particles (electrons or holes) that make up this charge. In your conclusions, discuss the magnitude of this number. I am so lost on this, any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

Figure 3 Two charged Pith Balls
Figure 3 shows the vector diagram for the three forces acting on each ball in equilibrium. They
are; the tension T in the nylon string, the weight Fw of the pith balls and the Coulomb force Fc
between the pith balls. The mass m on the pith balls is given above. L is the length of the nylon
string.
1. From the geometry of Figure 3 if each pith ball has a mass m and the two hang from strings
of length L separated by distance r because of their charge, then the charge q on each ball
is given by

Balls charged by induction
PVC and will repel each other.
If using the PVC does not produce enough charge on the pith balls then place the pith balls on the
fur material and gently rub the balls with the fur material. The pith balls will then fly apart. The
separation between the two charged balls should be between 2 and 6 cm. Do not touch the pith
balls or they may be partially discharged. Measure the distance r between the centers of the balls
by holding a ruler just below them. The measured value of r is needed to calculate the charge q on
the pith balls.
