Answer:

If the positive object is touched to the electroscope, then the leaves would diverge because of the excess positive charge on the electroscope.

If then a negative object is brought near the electroscope, the excess positive charge on the leaves would be attracted to the external terminals of the electroscope and the leaves would again lose the distance of separation and be close to one another.

Consider an electron that is 10-10 m from an alpha particle (9 = 3.2 x 10-19 C). (Enter the magnitudes.) (a) What is the electri
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a)E=2.88*10^{11}N/C

b)E=1.44*10^{11}N/C

c)F=4.61*10^{-8}N

Explanation:

We use the definition of a electric field produced by a point charge:

E=k*q/r^2

<u>a)Electric Field  due to the alpha particle:</u>

E=k*q_{alpha}/r^2=9*10^9*3.2*10^{-19}/(10^{-10})^2=2.88*10^{11}N/C

<u>b)Electric Field  due to electron:</u>

E=k*q_{electron}/r^2=9*10^9*1.6*10^{-19}/(10^{-10})^2=1.44*10^{11}N/C

<u>c)Electric Force on the alpha particle, on the electron:</u>

The alpha particle and electron feel the same force but with opposite direction:

F=k*q_{electron}*q_{alpha}/r^2=9*10^9*1.6*10^{-19}*3.2*10^{-19}/(10^{-10})^2=4.61*10^{-8}N
