When sugar is poured from the box into the sugar bowl, the rubbing of sugar<br />
grains creates a static electric charge that repels the grains, and causes sugar<br />
to go flying out in all directions. If each of two sugar grains acquires a charge<br />
of 3.0 × 10-11 C at a separation of 8.0 × 10-ÿ m, with what force will they<br />
repel each other?<br />

Boppo the clown carries two mylar balloons that rub against a cÿus elephant,<br />
causing the balloons to separate. Each balloon acquires 2.0 × 10- C of charge.<br />
How large is the electric force between them when they are separated by a<br />
distance of 0.50 m?<br />
Exercise 3: Inez uses hairspray on her hair each morning before going to school. The.<br />
spray spreads out before reaching her hair partly because of the electrostatic<br />
charge on the hairspray droplets. If two drops of hairspray repel each other<br />
with a force of 9.0 X 10-9 N at a distance of 0.070 cm, what is the charge on<br />
each of the e uÿy-charged drops of hairspray?<br />

Bonnie is dusting the house and raises a cloud of dust particles as she wipes<br />
across a table. If two 4.0 x 10-14-C pieces of dust exert an electrostatic force of :ii<br />
2.0 × 10-12 N on each other, how far apart are the dust particles at that time?<br />
Exercise 5: Each of two hot-air balloons acquires a charge of 3.0 × 10-5 C on its surface<br />
as it travels through the air. How far apart are the balloons if the electrostatic<br />
force between them is 8.1 x 10ÿ2 N?<br />

about the magnitude of the wool's charge after the rubbing process?<br />
Date:<br />
, If you stick a piece of transparent tape on your desk and then quickly pull it off, you will find that the<br />
tape is attracted to other areas of your desk that are not charged. Why does this happen?<br />
3. Metals, such as copper and silver, can become charged by induction, while plastic materials cannot.<br />
Explain why?<br />
