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?

How much charge is on the surface of the ball?arrow_forwardA thin, square, conducting plate 50.0 cm on a side lies in the xy plane. A total charge of 4.00 108 C is placed on the plate. Find (a) the charge density on each face of the plate, (b) the electric field just above the plate, and (c) the electric field just below the plate. You may assume the charge density is uniform.arrow_forwardTwo solid spheres, both of radius 5 cm, carry identical total charges of 2 C. Sphere A is a good conductor.

How many electrons would you have to add/remove to make the charge become -5.00 pC?arrow_forwardIn the quark model of fundamental particles, a proton is composed of three-point particles called quarks: two “up” quarks, each having charge +e 2/3, and one down quark, having charge -e/3, where e is the charge on the proton. Suppose the three quarks are equidistant from each other on a triangle.
