It is charged by induction so that it acquires a charge of -3.1 10-6 C. Object B is identical to object A and is also electrically neutral. It is charged by induction so that it acquires a charge of +3.1 10-6 C. Find the difference in mass between the charged objects. Solution: Part A: We must first determine whether electrons have been added or removed.

(*Note: If electrons are added the charge will be positive and if electrons are removed the charge will be positive only if the charge is neutral) Object A: Since the charge is negative (-3.1x10-6) then we know that (3.1x10-6) electrons have been added. Object B: Since the charge is positive (+3.1x10-6) then we know that (3.1x10-6) electrons have been removed. *Now we can find the total number of electrons by subtracting Object B from Object A.

(*Note: Since electrons have been added to Object A the value will be negative since electrons have a negative charge and vise versa for Object B) Object A – Object B (-3.1x10-6 C) - (+3.1x10-6 C) = - 6.2x10-6 C *Now we must convert the total electrons into mass (kg)

(*Note: The mass of one electron is 9.11x10-31kg and the charge is 1.6x10-19C) (*Note: Since mass is a scalar quantity the negative sign is dropped) (6.2x10-6 C) x (9.11x10-31kg) / (1.6x10-19C) = 3.530125x10-17kg

Part B: Since electrons were added to Object A the mass of Object A will be greater.

2. Consider three identical metal spheres, A, B, and C. Sphere A carries a charge of -4q. Sphere B carries a charge of -7q. Sphere C carries no net charge. Spheres A and B are touched together and then separated. Sphere C is then touched to sphere A and separated from it. Lastly, sphere C is touched to sphere B and separated from it. Solution: Part A: Identical conducting spheres equalize their charge upon touching. When sphere A and B the negative charge from A flows through B is added together and the charge is then split between A and B. Sphere C is neutral so when A and C touch the charge of A is split between A and C. When B and C touch the new amount on charge B is added together with charge C and then equally split. A and B touch -4q + -7q / 2 = -5.5 q A = -5.5q B=-5.5q A and C touch -5.5q + 0q / 2 = -2.75q A= -2.75q C= -2.75q B and C touch -5.5q + -2.75q / 2 = -4.125q B= -4.125q C= -4.125q Part B: The total charge is the sum of all charges. From the problem A is charged with -4q B is charged with -7q and C is 0q. A+B+C (-7q) + (-4q) + (0q) = -11q Part C: Since electrostatic forces are conserved the charges will also be conserved thus the charge is still -11q
