Two tiny conducting spheres are identical and carry charges of -20μC and +50μC. They are separeted by a distance of 2.50cm. (a) what is the magnitude of the force that each sphere each sphere experience, and is the force attractive or repulsive ? (b) The spheres are brought into contact and then separated toa distance of 2.50cm. Determine the magnitude of the force that each sphere now experiences, and state whether the force is attractive or repulsive.

, Attractive

, Repulsive

Explanation:

= -20 μC

= 50 μC

r = Distance between the charges = 2.5 cm

k = Coulomb constant =

Electrical force is given by

The magnitude of force each sphere will experience is

Since the charges have opposite charges they will attract each other.

Now the charges are brought into contact with each other so the resultant charge will be

The magntude of the force the spheres experience will be

The spheres have the same charge now so they will repel each other.

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.

think its the third option
