Part A
F = q .E( force/charge) = 20x10-9 C x 100N/C
=2x10-6 N
W = 0.15 x10-3 x 9.8 = 1.47 x 10-3 N
F/W = 1.36 x 10-3
Part B
F = W
qE = mg
20x10-9 C x E = 0.15x10-3 x 9.8
E = 1.47 x 10-3 / 20x10-9 = 7.35 x104 N/C
Part C

Exercise 3.5 A jet plane is flying at a constant altitude. At time t1=0it has components of velocity vx= 95 m/s , vy= 112 m/s . At time t2= 26.5 s the components are vx=161 m/s , vy= 45 m/s . Part A For this time interval calculate the average acceleration. Give your answer as a pair of components separated by a comma. For example, if you think the x component is 3 and the ycomponent is 4, then you...
