Answer:
Explanation:
The weight of the bee is:
with m the mass and g the gravity acceleration.
Electric force of the bee is related with the electric field of earth by:
with q the charge, E the electric field and Fe the electric force.
So:
Because Newton's first law we should make the net force on it equals cero:
with W the weight, Fe the electric force on the bee due earth's electric field and F the force.
So, the applied electric field should be:
The negative sign indicates that the electric field should be opposite to earth's electric field, so it should be upward.
