1.Suppose two bees, each with a charge of 93.7 pC, are separated by a distance of 1.21 cm. Treating the bees as point charges, with the magnitude of the electrostatic force experienced by the bees. Compare this force to the weight of a 0.112 g bee. By what factor is the force smaller than the bee?
given charge of each bee=93.7 pc
1pc=10-12coloumbs
distance between two bees=1.21cm=1.21/100=0.0121m
According to Columb's law F=1/4πε0 * Q1*Q2/r2=[(9.0 x 109 N•m2/C2)*(93.7*10-12coloumbs)*(93.7*10-12coloumbs)] / (0.0121m)2 F=0.0000005397=5397*10-10Newtons
here Q1 and Q2 are charges of bee, and r is the distance between the bee's
weight of bee with mass 0.122g=mass*g=0.122*9.8m/s2*10-3=1.1956*10-3Newtons
weight of the bee is greater than the electrostatic force between the two bees because the gravitational pull is greater than the force of attraction between two charged bees.

Two charged bees land simultaneously on flowers that are separated by a finite distance. For a few moments, the charged bees rest on the flowers. The charged bees both generate an electric field, and while the charged bees are resting on the flowers, the net electric field at some distance between them is zero.(a) Do the bees have the same or opposite signs of charge?Same - the electric fields point in opposite directions and therefore cancel at some midpoint.Same -...
Since bees can carry charge, they can be represented as point charges. Two bees are resting on a string and have charges +18.8 µC and +29.1 µC. If the magnitude of the electrostatic force between the bees is 2.87 N, what distance must the bees be separated?
