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
