Question
Find the net charge on each sphere and substitute values into Coulomb's law.
Two uncharged spheres are separated by 1.80 m. If 3.30 ✕ 1012 electrons are removed from one sphere and placed on the other, determine the magnitude of the Coulomb force (in N) on one of the spheres, treating the spheres as point charges.

The charges of each marble are q1 = 6.20 µC, q2 = 1.43 µC, and q3 = −2.01 µC. Marble q1 is a distance r1 = 3.00 cm to the left of the marble q2, while marble q3 is a distance r3 = 2.00 cm to the right of the marble q2. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field a distance r' = 1.00 cm to the left of the center marble.N/C Another marble is placed 1 cm to the left of the middle marble.

- A 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_forwardThree charges are arranged as shown in the figure below. Find the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force on the charge q = 5.16 nC at the origin. (Let r12 = 0.280 m.) Three-point charges lie along the axes in the x y-coordinate plane. Positive charge q is at the origin. A charge of 6.00 nC is at (r1 2, 0), where r1 2 > 0. A charge of −3.00 nC is at (0, −0.100 m).arrow_forwardTwo uncharged spheres are separated by 2.50 m.
