Question

A total charge of 4.37 C is distributed on two metal spheres. When the spheres are 10.00 cm apart, they each feel a repulsive force of 3.5*10^11 N. How much charge is on the sphere which has the lower amount of charge?

Answer 1

charge A 182 If the on the the spheres are Q & Q₂ [r=10cm] sepolce for repulsive force, FQ7 4ttore 3.5X10" = 9x181x[$] → QQ2=CH) -> Q, EQ2 = 4.376 => Q-C > Q1 + (1921) = 4.37 =) Q,2 +(75) = 4,37Q, =) Qi-4370,+6) - Q = 4.2791c, Q4-0.09084. If Qiz 4.2791c, Qzo (4-37-4,2791) =0.09090, T Q, -0.0908) C Q2 = (4.37 -0.09081) =4.27926 The charge on the sphere which here the lower amount of charge is 10.09096) Aug solutions
