Mr. H gives two large vinyl balloons ten good rubs on what's left of his hair, transferring a total of 2.1x1012 electrons from his hair to each balloon. He walks away, leaving the balloons to be held by strings from a single pivot point on the ceiling. The balloons repel and reach an equilibrium position with a separation distance of 58 cm.a. Determine the quantity of charge on each balloon.b. Determine the Coulomb force of repulsion between the two balloons.
