Answer: 42.49
Explanation:
To solve this, we need to keep in mind the following:
While the sphere hangs it is under the effect of gravity. It is creating a Angle of 90° taking the roof as a reference.
Gravity can be noted as a Acceleration Vector. The magnitud for Earth's Gravity is a constant: 9.81 
The acceleration of the Van will affect the sphere also, but this accelaration will be on the X-axis and perpendicular to the gravity. Because this two vectors are taking action under the sphere they will create a angle. This angle can be measured as a relation of the two magnitudes.
Tangent (∅) = Opossite Side / Adyacent Side
By trigonometry, we know the previous formula. This formula allows us to find the Tangent of a angle as a relation between the two perpendiculars magnitudes. In this case the Opossite Side will be the Gravity Accelaration, while the Adyancent Side is the Van's Acceleration.
(1) Tangent (∅) = Gravity's Acceleration (G) / Van's Acceleration (Va)
Searching for the Va in (1)
Va = G/Tan(∅)
Where ∅ in this case is equal to 13.0°
Va = 9.81
/ Tan(13.0°)
Va = 42.49
The vans acceleration need to be 42.49
to create an angle of 13° with the Van's Roof
The text does not specify whether the resistance R of the wire must be kept the same or not: here I assume R must be kept the same.
The relationship between the resistance and the resistivity of a wire is

where

is the resistivity
A is the cross-sectional area
R is the resistance
L is the wire length
the cross-sectional area is given by

where r is the radius of the wire. Substituting in the previous equation ,we find

For the new wire, the length L is kept the same (L'=L) while the radius is doubled (r'=2r), so the new resistivity is

Therefore, the new resistivity must be 4 times the original one.
Answer:
E = (-3.61^i+1.02^j) N/C
magnitude E = 3.75N/C
Explanation:
In order to calculate the electric field at the point P, you use the following formula, which takes into account the components of the electric field vector:
(1)
Where the minus sign means that the electric field point to the charge.
k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2
q = -4.28 pC = -4.28*10^-12C
r: distance to the charge from the point P
The point P is at the point (0,9.83mm)
θ: angle between the electric field vector and the x-axis
The angle is calculated as follow:

The distance r is:

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):
![\vec{E}=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{4.28*10^{-12}C}{(10.21*10^{-3}m)}[-cos(15.84\°)\hat{i}+sin(15.84\°)\hat{j}]\\\\\vec{E}=(-3.61\hat{i}+1.02\hat{j})\frac{N}{C}\\\\|\vec{E}|=\sqrt{(3.61)^2+(1.02)^2}\frac{N}{C}=3.75\frac{N}{C}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cvec%7BE%7D%3D%288.98%2A10%5E9Nm%5E2%2FC%5E2%29%5Cfrac%7B4.28%2A10%5E%7B-12%7DC%7D%7B%2810.21%2A10%5E%7B-3%7Dm%29%7D%5B-cos%2815.84%5C%C2%B0%29%5Chat%7Bi%7D%2Bsin%2815.84%5C%C2%B0%29%5Chat%7Bj%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cvec%7BE%7D%3D%28-3.61%5Chat%7Bi%7D%2B1.02%5Chat%7Bj%7D%29%5Cfrac%7BN%7D%7BC%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%7C%5Cvec%7BE%7D%7C%3D%5Csqrt%7B%283.61%29%5E2%2B%281.02%29%5E2%7D%5Cfrac%7BN%7D%7BC%7D%3D3.75%5Cfrac%7BN%7D%7BC%7D)
