A student creates identical charges on identical balloons by rubbing them with a wool cloth. The balloons repel each other. According to Coulomb's law, which of the following should the student do to increase the electrical force between the balloons?
Select one:
decrease the charge of any of the two balloons
increase the mass of each balloon
decrease the distance between the balloons
increase the amount of gas inside the balloons

- How far apart must be a proton from a group of 24 protons (held in place next to one another) if the magnitude of the electrostatic force acting on the lone proton due to the group is equal to the magnitude of the gravitational force on the lone proton at Earth's surface? Number Unitsarrow_forwardDraw the deflection of the needle, which way it moved, the location of positive and negative charges, and which way the charges moved for each of the following scenarios: 1) Rubbing PVC rod with wool to charge it negatively and then moving it close to the top of the electroscope disk without touching the disk with the rod. 2) Rubbing acrylic rod with silk to charge it positively and then moving it close to the top of the electroscope disk without touching the disk with the rod. 3) Touching charged PVC rod to disk and then moving the rod away. 4) Bringing the charged acrylic rod close to electroscope that was touched at the outset with the charged PVC rod. 5) Grounding electroscope then touching the edge of the disk with a grounded wire while concurrently bringing the charged PVC rod up close, but not touching, to the other side of the disk. Removing the grounding wire first and only then moving the PVC rod away.arrow_forwardQuestion 7 (1 point) To charge an electroscope positively by induction you need O two objects of the same charge O O a positively charged rod and a ground O O a negatively charged rod O two objects with opposite charges a negatively charged rod and a ground a negatively charged rodarrow_forward
- ??arrow_forwardTrue or False. The methods of charging a body are separation of charge, seduction, and induction. Pulling a plastic comb through your hair creates a static charge by separation. Touch the comb to a piece of foil charges the foil using _______________arrow_forwardA positive charge is released at point B. What will it do? -100V OV +100V A В Moves towards A with an increasing speed Moves towards A with a steady speed Remains at rest at B Moves towards C with a steady spee Moves towards C with an increasing speedarrow_forward
- Please solve and answer the question correctly. Be sure to use the correct units and work the problem carefully. Thank you!!arrow_forwardTwo charged particles, held not too far from each other, are released. As they move, the electric force on each particle increases. So, the particles must have A) the same mass B) charges of opposite signs C) the same size D) charges of the same sign E) impossible to answer without additional informationarrow_forwardyou have two point charges half a meter apart. the charges have values of positive 1.0 microC and negative 2.0 microC. you want to move the charges apart to twice the distance between them, determine the amount of work needed just need to make sure i understood the question correctly and i followed through with the right method my answer that i got was 18 x 10^-3Narrow_forward
