Consider the following. 0.500 mm 60.0 (a) Red blood cells often become charged and can be treated as point charges. Healthy red blood cells are negatively charged, but unhealthy cells (due to the presence of a bacteria, for example) can become positively charged. In the figure, three red blood cells are oriented such that they are located on the corners of an equilateral triangle. The red blood cell charges are A = 1.80 pC, B = 7.10 pC, and C = -4.40 pC. Given these charges, what would the magnitude and direction of the electric field be at cell A? (1 pC = 1 x 10-12 C.)

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
