Question: In Fig. 21-41, three identical conducting spheres form an equilateral triangle of side length d=20.0 cm. The sphere radii are much smaller thand, and the sphere charges are,
(a) What is the magnitude of the electrostatic force between spheresAandC?
The following steps are then taken:AandBare connected by a thin wire andthen disconnected;Bis grounded by the wire, and the wire is then removed;BandCare connected by the wire and then disconnected. What now are the magnitudes of the electrostatic force (b) between spheresAandCand (c) between spheresBandC?
In Fig. 21-15, a central particle of charge-qis surrounded by two circular rings of charged particles. What are the magnitude and direction of the net electrostatic force on the central particle due to the other particles? (Hint:Consider symmetry.)
How many electrons would have to be removed from a coin to leave it with a charge of ?
In crystals of the salt cesium chloride, cesium ions form the eight corners of a cube and a chlorine ion is at the cube鈥檚 center (Fig. 21-36). The edge length of the cube is . The ions are each deficient by one electron (and thus each has a charge of role="math" localid="1661790179659" ), and the ion has one excess electron (and thus has a charge of ). (a)What is the magnitude of the net electrostatic force exerted on the ion by the eight ions at the corners of the cube? (b) If one of theions is missing, the crystal is said to have a defect; what is the magnitude of the net electrostatic force exerted on theion by the seven remainingions?
In Fig. 21-39, two tiny conducting balls of identical mass mand identical charge hang from non-conducting threads of length L. Assume that u is so small that tan u can be replaced by its approximate equal, sin u.
(a) Show thatgives the equilibrium separation xof the balls.
(b) If and, what is?
