Two small plastic spheres are given positive electric charges. When they are 15 cm apart the repulsive force between them has magnitude 0.22 N. What is the charge on each sphere?

Respuesta :

The charge on each sphere is 742 n

What is Charge?

In physics, Charge, also known as electric charge is a electrical charge, or electrostatic charge and symbolized q, is a characteristic of a unit of matter that expresses the extent to which it has more or fewer electrons than protons.

According to the question,

Distance = 15cm or 0.15m

Force =  0.22N

[tex]K=9*10^{9} kgm^2/c^2[/tex] ( this is a constant value of K)

By using the formula,

F = [tex]\frac{kQq}{d^{2} }[/tex]

0.220 N = 8.99

N·m²/C² * Q² / (0.15m)²

Q = 7.42e-7

C = 742 n

C is the charge of each sphere .
