A 2 ųC charge and a -12ųC charge are placed as shown on the x-axis. Where would a -10ųC charged be placed so the 2ųC would receive a net force of zero? Answer in centimeters
What charge would be placed at 18 cm so the net force on the -12ųC charge is zero?
Answer in ųC

In a thunderstorm, charge builds up on the water droplets or ice crystals in a cloud. thus, the charge can be considered to be distributed uniformly throughout the cloud. for the purposes of this problem, take the cloud to be a sphere of diameter 1.00 kilometer. the point of this problem is to estimate the maximum amount of charge that this cloud can contain, assuming that the charge builds up until the electric field at the surface of the cloud reaches the value at which the surrounding air breaks down. this breakdown means that the air becomes highly ionized, enabling it to conduct the charge from the cloud to the ground or another nearby cloud. the ionized air will then emit light due to the recombination of the electrons and atoms to form excited molecules that radiate light. in addition, the large current will heat up the air, resulting in its rapid expansion. these two phenomena account for the appearance of lightning and the sound of thunder. take the breakdown electric field of air to be eb=3.00ă—106n/c. part a estimate the total charge q on the cloud when the breakdown of the surrounding air is reached. express your answer numerically, to three significant figures, using ďµ0=8.85ă—10â’12c2/(nâ‹…m2) .

The system is released from rest with the cable taut, and the homogeneous cylinder does not slip on the rough incline. determine the angular acceleration of the cylinder and the minimum coeffi cient s of friction for which the cylinder will not slip.
