Question

Just before a lighting strike, a charge of 16.6 C has built up around a tree. What is the electric potential difference between point A, 22 m distant from the tree, and point B, 39 m distant from the tree? Assume the potential is defined to be 0 an infinite distance away from the tree. Answer in volts.

A small sphere is charged with 2 billion extra electrons. The ball is used in a sensitive apparatus that measures electric forces. A second charged ball is brought near the apparatus so that it is a distance of 15 cm from the first ball. An attractive force of 11 nanoNewtons is measured. What is the charge of the second ball? Answer in Coulombs.
