Answer: 10.96secs

Explanation:

According to newton's second law

Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

F = m(v-u)/t

Cross multiplying we have

Ft = m(v-u)

t = m(v-u)/F

Given F = 2600N m = 19,000kg v = 1.5m/s u = 0m/s

Substituting this values in the formula for the time we have

t = 19000(1.5-0)/2600

t = 28,500/2600

t= 10.96secs

Answer:

$7.0\cdot 10^{-13}C$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged objects is

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

The force is attractive if the charges have opposite sign and repulsive if the charges have same sign.

In this problem, we have:

$r=0.070 cm =7\cdot 10^{-4} m$ is the distance between the charges

$q_1=q_2=q$ since the charges are identical

$F=9.0\cdot 10^{-9}N$ is the force between the charges

Re-arranging the equation and solving for q, we find the charge on each drop:

$F=\frac{kq^2}{r^2}\\q=\sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(9.0\cdot 10^{-9})(7\cdot 10^{-4})^2}{8.99\cdot 10^9}}=7.0\cdot 10^{-13}C$
