The classic Millikan oil drop experiment was the first to obtain an accurate measurement of the charge on an electron. In it, oil drops were suspended against the gravitational force by a vertical electric field.
a)Given that the oil drop is 1.2 μm in radius and has a density of 905 kg/m3, find the weight of the drop in N.
b)If the drop has a single excess electron, find the electric field strength needed to balance its weight.
A spherical Conductor of radius 0.330 m has a spherical cavity of radius 0.120m at its center. The conductor carries a total charge of -6.00 nC; in addition, at the center of the spherical cavity is a point charge of +4.00 nC. Find
(a) the total charge on the surface of the cavity,
(b) the total charge on the outer surface of the condutor,
(c) the magnitude of the electric field just inside te surface of the cavity, and
The answers were wrong on the previous attempts, the answers should be
