7. Two identical small spheres of mass 2.0g are fastened to the ends of an insulating thread of length 0.60 m. The spheres are suspended by a hook in the ceiling from the centre of the thread. The spheres are given identical electric charges and hang in static equilibrium, with an angle of 30.0° between the string halves, as shown in Figure 5. Calculate the magnitude of the charge on each sphere.

Imagine a setup as below, where the Green object is attached to the ceiling with a rotatable rigid rod, and an Orange object is fixed to a wall and d .. m1 Q1 m2 Q2 The Orange object has a charge configuration of Q2 = -10 Coulombs. The Green object's charge configuration Q1 is unknown. The distance between the center of the Orange and Green objects is d=8 millimeters. The mass of the Orange object is m, (the value is irrelevant for this question) and the Green object has a mass of m, = 11 grams. The setup is in equilibrium, that is, the net force on the Green object is zero (hence, it has zero acceleration). If the angle is 0=6 degrees, what is the value of the Green object's charge Q, in Coulombs? IMPORTANT: The actual answer is in the form of 10 18. Write only the number before it.

1. The magnitude of an electric field became 3.0 x 106 N/C or greater, so that electrical breakdown and thus sparking could occur. 2. The energy of a spark was 150 mJ or greater so that it could ignite the powder explosively. Let us check for the first condition in the powder flow through the plastic pipes. Suppose a stream of negatively charged powder was blown through a cylindrical pipe of radius R = 5.0 cm. Assume that the powder and its charge were spread uniformly through the pipe with a volume charge density p. a. Using Gauss' law, find an expression for the magnitude of the electric field E in the pipe as a function of radial distance r from the pipe center. b. Does E increase or decrease with increasing r? c. Is E directed radially inward or outward? d. For p = 1.1 x 10³ C/m³ (a typical value at the factory), find the maximum E and determine where that maximum field occurs. e. Could sparking occur, and if so, where?
