Silver has, 47 electrons per stom, and its molar mass is 107.87 g/mol. (b) Electrons are added to the pin until the net negative charge is 100 mC. How many electrons are added for every 10° electrors already present? Section 23.2 Charging Objects by Induction Section 23.3 Couomb's Law EE] Te Nobel tureate Richard Feyuman once at Unt if two persons stcod at arm’s length from each other and. cach person had 1% more electrons than protons, the force of repulsion between them would be enough to lift “weight” equal to that of the entire Farth. Carry out an orderofmagnitude calculation 0 substantiate this assertion. 4. Iwo protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2 < 10"! m, The electric repulsion foree between the protons is huge, but the attractive muclear is even stronger and keeps the nucleus from bursting apart. What is the magnitude of the elecuic force between ‘two protons separated by 2.00 x 10"! m? 5. (a) Two protons in a molecule are separated by 3.80 X 10-! m. Find the electric force exerted by one proton on. the other. (b) How does the magnitude of this force com- pare to the magnitude of the gravitational force between the ovo protons? (¢) What If? What must be the charge- to-mass ratio of a particle if the magnitude of the gravita- tional foree between two of these particles equals the ‘magnitude of electric force between them? 6. Two small silver spheres, each with a mass of 10.0 g, are separated by 1.00 m. Calculate the fraction of the electrons in one sphere that must be wansferred to the other in order to produce an attractive force of 1.00 10* N (about Iton) between the spheres. (The number of electrons per atom of silver is 47, and the number of atoms per gram is Avogadro's number divided by the molar mass of silver, 107.87 g/mol.) hee point charges are located at the corners of an equi lateral triangle as shown in Figure P23.7.
