Chapter 22, Problem 51P

Assume that a honeybee is a sphere of diameter 1.000 cm with a charge of +45.0 pC uniformly spread over its surface. Assume also that a spherical pollen grain of diameter 40.0 µm is electrically held on the surface of the bee because the bee's charge induces a charge of +1.00 pC on the near side of the grain and a charge of +1.00 pC on the far side. (a) What is the magnitude of the net electrostatic force on the grain due to the bee? Next, assume that the bee brings the grain to a distance of 1.000 mm from the tip of a flower’s stigma and that the lip is a particle of charge –45.0 pC. (b) What is the magnitude of the net electrostatic force on the grain due to the stigma? (c) Does the grain remain on the bee or does it move to the stigma?

An object of mass 5 × 10-6 g is placed over a thin positively charged sheet of surface density of charge σ = 4.0 × 10-6C/m2 (figure shown below). Estimate the charge that should be given to this object so that upon release it will not fall down. Calculate the number of electrons that is to be removed to give this charge. How much mass loss is caused by this removal of electrons?
Flying insects such as bees may accumulate a small positive electric charge as they fly. In one experiment, the mean electric charge of 50 bees was measured to be ++(30 ±± 5) pCpC per bee. Researchers also observed the electrical properties of a plant consisting of a flower atop a long stem. The charge on the stem was measured as a positively charged bee approached, landed, and flew away. Plants are normally electrically neutral, so the measured net electric charge on the stem was zero when the bee was very far away. As the bee approached the flower, a small net positive charge was detected in the stem, even before the bee landed. Once the bee landed, the whole plant became positively charged, and this positive charge remained on the plant after the bee flew away. By creating artificial flowers with various charge values, experimenters found that bees can distinguish between charged and uncharged flowers and may use the positive electric charge left by a previous bee as a cue…
