Answer:

Electric field, E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g = 0.0021 kg

Charge, q=-3\ nC=-3\times 10^{-9}\ C

We need to find the magnitude of electric field that balances the weight of a plastic spheres. So,

ma=qE

a = g

E=\dfrac{mg}{q}

E=\dfrac{0.0021\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{-3\times 10^{-9}\ C}

E=6860000\ N/C

or

E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Hence, the magnitude of electric field that balances its weight is 6.86\times 10^6\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

If the net external force acting on a system is zero , then the total momentum of the system is zero
Neporo4naja [7]
If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.
