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.

A small metal bead, labeled A, has a charge of 26 nC . It is touched to metal bead B, initially neutral, so that the two beads share the 26 nC charge, but not necessarily equally. When the two beads are then placed 5.0 cm apart, the force between them is 5.0×10−4 N . Assume that A has a greater charge.What is the charge qA and qB on the beads?
Two identical metal spheres A and B are connected by a plastic rod. Both are initially neutral. 2.0×1012 electrons are added to sphere A, then the connecting rod is removed. A)Afterward, what is the charge of A?B)Afterward, what is the charge of B?
Two identical spheres are attached to silk threads of length L=0.60 m and hung from a common point as shown in the figure. Each sphere has a mass m=7.0 g. One sphere is given a charge q1, and the other is given a different charge q2, this causes the spheres to separate so that when the spheres are in equilibrium, each thread makes an angle = 20 degrees with the vertical. A small wire is then connected to the spheres, allowing charge to be transferred from one sphere to the other until the two spheres have equal charges, the wire is then removed. Each thread now makes an angle = 30 degrees. Determine the original charge (in micro-coulomb) of q1.
