We have that the electric field at the center of the metal ball due only to the charges on the surface of the metal ball is
From the question we are told that
A solid metal ball of radius 1.5 cm
bearing a charge of -15 nC is located near a hollow plastic ball of radius 1.9 cm bearing
uniformly distributed charge of -7 nC
The distance between the centers of the balls is 9 cm
Generally the equation for the electric field is mathematically given as

We can calculate the acceleration of Cole due to friction using Newton's second law of motion:
where
is the frictional force (with a negative sign, since the force acts against the direction of motion) and m=100 kg is the mass of Cole and the sled. By rearranging the equation, we find
Now we can use the following formula to calculate the distance covered by Cole and the sled before stopping:
where
is the final speed of the sled
is the initial speed
is the distance covered
By rearranging the equation, we find d:
where
