Question
Transcribed Image Text:In the figure two tiny conducting balls of identical mass m and identical charge q hang from nonconducting threads of length L.
Assume that 0 is so small that tan 0 can be replaced by its approximate equal, sin 0. If L = 180 cm, m = 10 g, and x = 4.9 cm, what is the
magnitude of q?
