The magnitude of a vertical electric field that will balance the weight of a plastic sphere of mass 2. 1 g that has been charged to -3. 0 NC is 6.86 ×
N/C.
An electric field is the physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts a force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them. It also refers to the physical field of a system of charged particles.
It is given that,
Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g =0.0021kg
Charge,q = ₋3nC = ₋ 3 ₓ 
To balance the weight of a plastic sphere, we must determine the magnitude of the electric field. So,

a = g

E = 
E = 6860000 N/C
E = 6.86 ×
N/C
Hence, the magnitude of the electric field that balances its weight is 6.86 ×
N/C .

Impulse is caused by a force during a specific time that is equal to the body's change of momentum
Impulsive force: the process of minimizing an impact force can be approched
Explanation:
Rutherford proposed a revised model for the atom, called the planetary model. The previous model of the atom was Thomson's Plum Pudding Model which consisted of freely moving positive and negative charges inside the atom.
Rutherford proposed his model after an experiment he conducted called the Gold Foil Experiment. This experiment consisted of a thin gold sheet into which alpha particles were shot upon and they were detected by a sensor. The image attached will give a better explanation of this. In this experiment he shot a beam of alpha particles(helium nucleus) at a thin sheet of gold. Rutherford hypothesised that there should be minimum deflection of the positively charged alpha particles occuring due to the repulsion of the alpha particle with the positive charges in the thin gold sheet. This was not the case.
However what he found was that most of alpha particles went straight through the thin sheet of gold but some were reflected back to him. This surprised him. Hence he proposed that most of the atom must be empty space as most of the alpha particles went straight through the sheet and there must be a heavy nucleus inside the atom causing the alpha particles to bounce back.
The relationship between the frequency (f) of an electromagnetic wave, the speed of the wave (which is the speed of light, c) and its wavelength

is given by

Since the wavelength of the radiation in the problem is

, by substituting numbers in the formula we can get the frequency:
