An electric field with an average magnitude of about 150 N/C points downward in the atmosphere near Earth’s surface.We wish to “float” a sulfur sphere weighing 4.4 N in this field by charging the sphere. (a) What charge (both sign and magnitude) must be used? (b) Why is the experiment impractical?
Earth has a net charge that produces an electric field of approximately 150 N/C downward at its surface.
(a) What is the amount of excess charge on the Earth, noting the electric field of a conducting sphere is equivalent to a point charge at its center, in coulombs?
(b) What magnitude of acceleration, in meters per second squared, will the field produce on a free electron near Earth’s surface? (c) What mass object, in kilograms, with a single extra electron will have its weight supported by this field?
The electric field near the surface of the earthpoints downward and has a magnitude of60 N/C.Compare the upward electric force on anelectron with the downward gravitationalforce; i.e., what is the ratio FeFg? The elementary charge is 1.6 × 10−19 C and the massof an electron is 9.11 × 10−31 kg.
What is the magnitude of the charge thatshould be placed on a coin of mass 4.4 g sothat the electric force balances the weight ofthe coin near the earth’s surface?Answer in units of C.
