A box full of charged plastic balls sits on a table. The electric force exerted on a ball near one upper corner of the box has components 1.2 x 10^-3 N directed north, 5.7 x 10^-4 N directed east and 2.2 x 10^-4 N directed vertically upward. The charge on this ball is 110 nC.

If this ball were replaced with one that has a charge of -50nC , what would be the force components exerted one the replacement ball?

F north=?
F east=?
F up=?​

We have that the values for F north, F east, F up are

  • [tex]F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}[/tex]
  • [tex]F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}[/tex]
  • [tex]F_E=2*10^{-6}[/tex]

From the Question we are told that

electric force [tex]F_1 = 1.2 x 10^{-3} N(N)[/tex]

electric force , [tex]F_2=5.7 x 10^{-4} N(E)[/tex]

electric force , [tex]F_3=2.2 x 10^{-4} N (U)[/tex]

charge on this ball one [tex]q_1= 110 nC.[/tex]

charge on this ball two [tex]q_2= -50 nC.[/tex]

Generally the equation for the F north  is mathematically given as

[tex]F_N=\frac{F_1}{q_1}\\\\F_N=\frac{ 1.2 * 10^{-3} )}{110}[/tex]

[tex]F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}[/tex]

For F East

[tex]F_E=\frac{F_2}{q_1}\\\\F_E=\frac{5.7 x 10^-4 }{110}[/tex]

[tex]F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}[/tex]

For F UP

[tex]F_U=\frac{F_3}{q_1}\\\\F_U=\frac{2.2 x 10^-4 }{110}[/tex]

[tex]F_E=2*10^{-6}[/tex]
