Q1 An ion has a charge of 6.4 x 10-17 C. 8.2 x 10-4 meters away is a second charge with
a charge of 9.6 x 10-16 C.
a. What is the strength of the electrostatic force between the ions?
b. Is the force attractive or repulsive?
Q2 The force between two protons is 5.5 x 10-15 N. How far apart are the protons?
Q3 Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2 × 10-15
m. The electric repulsive force between the protons is huge, but the attractive
nuclear force is even stronger and keeps the nucleus from bursting apart. What is
the magnitude of the electric force between two protons separated by 2.00 × 10-15 m?
Ans: 57.5 N
Q4 A 7.50-nC point charge is located 1.80 m from a 4.20-nC point charge.
(a) Find the magnitude of the electric force that one particle exerts on the other.
(b) Is the force attractive or repulsive?
Ans: 8.74 × 10 N
−8

Q5 Two identical conducting small spheres are placed with their centers 0.300 m apart.
One is given a charge of 12.0 nC and the other a charge of 218.0 nC.
(a) Find the electric force exerted by one sphere on the other.
(b) What If? The spheres are connected by a conducting wire. Find the electric force
each exerts on the other after they have come to equilibrium.

= 2.00 cm.
Calculate the magnitude and direction of the net electric force on
(a) q1, (b) q2, and (c) q3.

Q8 Two small beads having positive charges q1 = 3q and q2 = q are fixed at the opposite
ends of a horizontal insulating rod of length d = 1.50 m. The bead with charge q1 is
at the origin. As shown in Figure, a third small, charged bead is free to slide on the
rod.

Q10 Three point charges are located on a circular arc as


shown in Figure.

arc?
(b) Find the electric force that would be exerted on a
25.00-nC point charge placed at P.

b. −8.98 × 10−5 N (to the left)
Q11 According to the Coulomb’s Law formula, if you double the distance between two
ions, how will this affect the electrostatic force between the ions?
Q12 According to the Coulomb’s Law formula, if you double the charge on one of the
two ions, how will this affect the electrostatic force between the two ions?
