1- Wilson, Buffa and Lou 15.10 - Note, you are finding the force one carbon nucleus exerts on the other carbon nucleus. A carbon nucleus has a charge of +6e (positive 6 electron charges).
2. Start with four identical solid spheres (A, B, C, and D) made of the same conducting material. Each is mounted on an insulated stand. Spheres A, B, C, and D start with -10µC, +15µC, -20µC, and 0C of charge, respectively. First spheres A and B are brought into physical contact and then separated. Next spheres B and C are brought into contact and then separated. Finally, spheres C and D are brought into contact and separated. No additional charges enter or leave the system.
(a) What is the charge on each sphere after each action is completed? Justify.
(b) What is the final charge on each sphere after all actions are completed? Justify.
(c) Would the answer be the same if the spheres are not identical? Justify.
3- Wilson, Buffa and Lou 15.14 - The sodium ion has a net charge of +1e and the chlorine ion has a net charge of -1e.
