Two identical tiny spheres of mass m =2g and charge q hang from a non-conducting strings, each of length l = 10cm. at equilibrium, each string makes and angle θ =50 with the vertical. find the size of the charge on each spere.

0.247 μC

Explanation:

As both sphere will be at the same level at wquilibrium, the direction of the electric force will be on the x axis. As you can see in the picture below, the x component of the tension of the string of any of the spheres should be equal to the electric force of repulsion. And its y component will be equal to the weight of one sphere. We can use trigonometry to find the components of the tensions:

The electric force is given by the expression:

In equilibrium, the distance between the spheres will be equal to 2 times the length of the string times sin(50):

And k is the coulomb constan equal to 9 *10^9 N*m^2/C^2. q1 y q2 is the charge of each particle, in this case, they are equal.

O 0.247 μC

answer: a ball

explanation: because it will bounce

i think the answer is a, hope this : )
