- You have likely experienced "static shock" recently. The magnitude of charge transferred when you walk across a carpet, reach out and touch a doorknob, and unintentionally give yourself that static shock is around 2.98 nC (nC stands for nano-Coulomb). In units of Giga-electrons, about how many electrons are transferred when you experience static shock? Note: it is understood that the unit of your answer is in billions of electrons (hence Giga-electrons), however do not explicitly include units in your answer.arrow_forwardTwo charges lie in a line along the x axis. Charge 1 is q1 = 1.1 C and charge 2 is q2 = 2.15 C. They are each a distance of d = 0.093 m from the origin. What is the distance on the x-axis from the origin at which the electric field will be zero. Give your answer in meters.arrow_forwardTwo point charges each with 0.15 CC of charge are 5.0×10−2 mm apart. Knowing that k is 9×10^9N⋅m^2/C (the proportionality constant for Coulomb's law), find the force between the charges. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.arrow_forward
- What net charge would you place on a 733 g piece of sulfur if you put an extra electron on 1 in 1012 of its atoms? (Sulfur has an atomic mass of 32.1.) Answer: ________________ Carrow_forwardTwo objects charged with an equal amount of charge interact with each other with a force of 4.81 Newton when separated by a distance of 16.9 cm. Determine the magnitude of the charge on each object. Answer:_______x10-6 C Enter only the coefficient of the scientific notation. For example, you'd enter just just 1.27 if you get 1.27x10-⁹.arrow_forwardDoes a positive charge outside a conductor induce only the free electrons to move, so there are no positive charges that are actually moving due to repulsion?arrow_forward
- Answer the following problems. 1. Three conducting spheres have charges of -40nC, -60nC, and 100 nC respectively. What would be the final charge of the -40nC sphere if it: 1.1 first touched the -60 nC sphere and then touched the 100 nC sphere? 1.2 first touched the 100 nC sphere and then touched the -60 nC sphere? 2. An object with net charge 8 C touches another object of the same size and shape with a net charge of 18 C. Find the charge on each object after they are pulled away and are no longer in contact.arrow_forwardSuppose you have a glass rod with a 0.68 μC charge and a polyester cloth with a -0.61μC charge, which are 13 cm apart.
