10. A massless spring is attached to a support at one end and has a 2.0µC charge glued to the other end. A -4.0 µC charge is slowly brought near. The spring has stretched 1.2 cm when the charges are 2.6 cm apart. What is the spring constant of the spring? (Help: Spring force = Hooke's Law. F= kx, and k = spring constant and x is distance which it is same as r)

Two charges Q1(1+2.00C) and Q2(+2.00C are placed symmetrically along the x-axis at x=3.00cm . Consider a charge Q3 of charge +4.00C and mass 10.0 mg moving along the y-axis. If Q3 starts from rest at y= 2.00 cm, what is its speed when it reaches y = 4.00 cm?
A common demonstration involves charging a rubber balloon, which is an insulator, by rubbing it on your hair and then touching the balloon to a ceiling or wall, which is also an insulator. Because of the electrical attraction between the charged balloon and the neutral wall, the balloon slicks to the wall. Imagine now that we have two infinitely large, Hat sheets of insulating material. One is charged, and the other is neutral, lf these sheets are brought into contact, does an attractive force exist between them as there was for the balloon and the wall?
An infinite line of positive charge lies along the y axis, with charge density = 2.00 C/m. A dipole is placed with its center along the x axis at x = 25.0 cm. The dipole consists of two charges 10.0 C separated by 2.00 cm. The axis of the dipole makes an angle of 35.0 with the x axis, and the positive charge is farther from the line of charge than the negative charge. Find the net force exerted on the dipole.

Review. A particle with a charge of 60.0 nC is placed at the center of a nonconducting spherical shell of inner radius 20.0 cm and outer radius 25.0 cm. The spherical shell carries charge with a uniform density of 1.33 C/m3. A proton moves in a circular orbit just outside the spherical shell. Calculate the speed of the proton.
