Bees acquire an electric charge in flight from friction with the air, which causes pollen to cling to them. The pollen is then attracted to the stigma of the next flower as shown in the figure (Figure 1). Suppose the bee's body has a charge of −1.0×10−9C and is about 3.0 ×10−3m from the front edge of a spherical granule of pollen of diameter 4.5 ×10−5 m. Charged particles in the pollen become polarized with +10−11C on the front edge and −10−11C on the backside of the pollen (3.0 ×10−3 + 4.5 ×10−5) m from the bee. Determine the electric potential energy of the bee-pollen system. The answer is NOT -2.044x10^-8 J

Bees acquire an electric charge in flight from friction with the air, which causes pollen to cling to them. The pollen is then attracted to the stigma of the next flower. Suppose the bee's body has a charge of −1.0×10−9C and is about 2.8 ×10−3m from the front edge of a spherical granule of pollen of diameter 5.3 ×10−5 m. Charged particles in the pollen become polarized with +10−11C on the front edge and −10−11C on the backside of the...
