A plastic rod acquires a negative charge after being rubbed with fur. Which of the following statements is not true about the charge of the fur. The fur acquires a positive charge but greater in magnitude than the rod. After rubbing against the plastic rod, the fur contains more positive charges (protons) than negative charges (electrons). The fur acquires a net positive charge because electrons are transferred from the fur to the plastic rod. The fur acquires a positive charge that is equal in magnitude to the negative charge on the plastic rod.

This time your object has a mass of 20.4 kg. Now imagine taking all the protons out of the object and stuffing them into a box. Also take all the electrons out of the object and stuff them in a second box. How much charge is contained in the box with all the protons? Question 2 options: 3.90E+09 C 4.89E+08 C 9.77E+08 C 1.95E+09 C
An old fashioned computer monitor accelerates electrons and directs them to the screen in order to create an image. How much equal charge should be placed on the Earth and the Moon so that the electrical repulsion balances the gravitational force of 1.98×10^20N ? Treat the Earth and Moon as point charges a distance 3.84×10^8m apart.
Two spherical objects are separated by a distance of 1.52 x 103 m. The objects are initially electrically neutral and are very small compared to the distance between them. Each object acquires the same negative charge due to the addition of electrons. As a result, each object experiences an electrostatic force that has a magnitude of 2.24 x 10-20 N. How many electrons did it take to produce the charge on one of the objects? Number Units
