(a)
According to Newton's second law, the force experienced by each balloon is given by:
F = ma
where
m = 0.021 kg is the mass
a = 1.1 m/s^2 is the acceleration
Substituting, we found:
The electrostatic force between the two balloons can be also written as
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
Q is the charge on each balloon
r = 16 m is their separation
Since we know the value of F, we can find Q, the magnitude of the charge on each balloon:
(b) electrons
The magnitude of the charge of one electron is
While the magnitude of the charge on one balloon is
This charge can be written as
where N is the number of electrons that are responsible for this charge. Solving for N, we find:
