A small balloon has been given some charge by rubbing it on a sweater. It is noticed that a dust particle 2.5 meters away, with a net charga of-3.6 nC, is repelled with a force of 6.5 10 N. Assume that the balloon is like a point charge. How strong is the electric field due to the balloon?(magnitude only) 12 10 N/C 90N/C C 120N/C 18 10 N/C 180N/C

A 0.150 kg lump of clay is dropped from a height of 1.75 m onto the floor. It sticks to the floor and does not bounce. What is the magnitude of the impulse J imparted to the clay by the floor during the impact? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s². J = The force exerted by the floor on the clay is plotted as a function of time in the figure. What must have been the maximum force Fmax exerted by the floor on the clay? Fmax kg. m/s = N Force (N) F max 0 F 7.5 ms Time (ms)

I need help with this problem. I am really struggling figuring it out. Any help is greatly appreciated! Consider a region in which a uniform electric field of 25 N/C is directed to the east. A negative point charge is released from rest within this field. The charge on this particle is -3.7 nC and its mass is 6.1 x 10-10 kg. How far and in what direction will the object travel in 0.25 s?
What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a 2.45 g particle be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed electric field of magnitude 650 N/C ? Express your answer in microcoulombs.
A 0.01294 kg ball with a positive charge of 47.4 μC hangs from a light string right next to a large vertical metal plate (the metal plate is so large compared to the length of the string and ball consider it to be infinite in size). How much surface charge density must the plate have to repel the ball so that the string makes and angle of 5.03 degrees from the vertical. Give your answer to 3 significant figures and in units of nC/m/m (nanoCoulombs per meter squared: Blackboard has trouble with squred units). Type in the units right after your numerical answer.
