You are an astronaut, living for a long time interval in the International Space Station (ISS). During your off-duty hours, you have run out of books to read and video games to play. So, your mind wanders to your hobby of music. The last book you read discussed Gauss's law, and you get an inspiration. You plan to attach two nonconducting spheres of radius r = 1.50 cm together using a light insulating string of length L and linear mass density = 5.00 x 10-3 kg/m, with the string attached at the surface of each sphere. Then, using the electrical system on the ISS, you will be able to electrify each sphere to a charge of Q = 75.0 μC, uniformly spread over the surface of the sphere. The combination will then be allowed to float freely in the ISS. The spheres will repel, creating a tensi in the string. When you pluck the string, you wish it to play a perfect middle C, at 262 Hz. Determine the length of the string (in cm) that you need. (Assume the frequency of 262 Hz is the fundamenta frequency. Round your answer to at least one decimal place.) cm

Say you have a point charge of one Coulomb and a hydrogen atom some distance away. Within what distance would the difference of forces on the proton and electron from the Coulomb charge exceed the attraction between the proton and electron that holds the hydrogen atom together. Treat the hydrogen atom as a proton and electron 0.53 × 10−10 m (a.k.a., one Bohr radius) apart.

A particle with unknown mass m and charge g is initially moving at constant velocity v = 4 x 10° n /s in a region with zero electic field. It then enters a region where the field is E = 100 N/C, in the same direction as the particle's motion. The particletravels for a distance of 2 = 1.2 cm before momentarly coming to a stop. What is the particle's charge to mass ratio q/m? Be sure to include the sign of the ratio and its units
