1) 9.57 N
We have two forces applied on the apple:
- The force of gravity, in the downward direction:
W = 9.42 N
- The force exerted by the wind, in the horizontal direction (to the right):
Fw = 1.68 N
The two forces are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the magnitude of the net force by using Pythagorean's theorem.
Therefore, we have:

2) 
The direction of the net external force, measured from the downward vertical, can be measured using the following formula:

where
is the force in the horizontal direction
is the force in the vertical direction
In this problem,


and so we find:

the answer is C because the air balloon is going down meaning that negative
Answer: a) electric field will be zero at zero meters apart
b) for smaller charge q, E = 6.048X10^6N/m towards away from the charge,
for bigger charge Q, E = 4.032X10^6N/m
Explanation:
Detailed explanation and calculation is shown in the image below.
Answer:

Explanation:
According to Gauss's Law, the electric flux of a charged sphere is the electric field multiplied by the area of the spherical surface:

This is identical to the electric flux of a point charge located in the center of the sphere.
