Question

16. (II) A large electroscope is made with leaves that are 78-cm-long wires with tiny 21-g spheres at the ends. When charged, nearly all the charge resides on the spheres. If the wires each make a 26° angle with the vertical (Fig. 16-55), what total charge Q must have been applied to the electroscope? Ignore the mass of the wires. 26°126 78 cm 78 cm FIGURE 16-55 Q Problem 16.

    Two 1.8-g spheres are suspended by 21.0-cm-long light strings (see the figure). A uniform electric field is applied in the x-direction. If the spheres have charges of −6.0 ✕ 10−8 C and +6.0 ✕ 10−8 C, determine the electric field intensity that enables the spheres to be in equilibrium at θ = 20°. Charged spheres hang from the ends of each of two strings of identical length. The tops of each string are connected to a single attachment point on...
