The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two identical ions that are separated by a distance of 5.010-10mis3.710-9N. (a) What is the charge of each ion? (b) How many electrons are 鈥渕issing鈥 from each ion (thus giving the ion its charge imbalance)?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The charge of each ion is 3.210-19C.

b) The number of missing electrons from each ion is 2.

Step by step solution

01

Stating the given data

a) Separation distance of the ionsr=5.010-10m ,

b) The magnitude of force between the ions F=3.7x10-9N,

c) They are identical, that is,havingthe same charge,q .

02

Understanding the concept of Coulomb’s law and charge quantisation

Using the concept of Coulomb's law, we can get the charge on each ion with the given data. As we know, a charged particle emits energy in the form of packets; thus, the number of electrons emitted or present can be considered as a multiple factor of the electronic charge.

Formula:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between any two particles isF=k|q1||q2|r2F=k|q1||q2|r2. (i)

The number of electrons present is. n=qe(ii)

03

a) Calculation of the charge on each ion

Let the charge of each ion be q. Now, using the magnitude of the force between the ions in equation (i), the charge on each ion is given as(for q1=q2=q)

localid="1662991888956" width="279">q=rFk=5.010-10m3.710-9N9.0109Nm2C2=3.210-19C

Hence, the value of the charge on each ion is 3.210-19C.

04

b) Calculation of the missing electrons from each ion

Let nbe the number of electrons missing from each ion. Then using the above value of charge on each ion in equation (ii), we can get the value of missing electrons on each ion as follows:

n=3.210-19C1.610-19C=2

Hence, the value of missing electrons on each ion is 2.

Figure 21-34ashows charged particles 1 and 2 that are fixed in place on an x-axis. Particle 1 has a charge with a magnitude of|q1|=8.00e. Particle 3 of chargeq3=+8.00eis initially on the x-axis near particle 2.Then particle 3 is gradually moved in the positive direction of the x-axis. As a result, the magnitude of the net electrostatic force on particle 2 due to particles 1 and 3

changes. Figure 21-34bgives the xcomponent of that net force as a function of the position xof particle 3.The scale of the x-axis is setby xs=0.80m. Theplot has an asymptote ofF2net=1.51025鈥塏asx. As a multiple of eand including the sign, what is the chargeq2of particle 2?
