If the mass of the charge is very small (mass = 2.9×10^-25kg) so that its weight (weight in Newtons = mass in kg × 9.8 m/s2) is negligible compared to the electric force, what is the magnitude of its acceleration? Recall Newton's 2nd Law.

the magnitude of the electric force is 27.68×10^−17?

Write your result in terms of 10^9 m/s2. For example, if the result is 1.234 ×10^9 m/s2, just enter 1.234 (keep 3 decimal places).

A very small object with mass 8.10×10−9 kg and positive charge 6.20×10−9 C is projected directly toward a very large insulating sheet of positive charge that has uniform surface charge density 5.90×10−8C/m2.

A small spherical insulator of mass 5.49 × 10-2 kg and charge +0.600 μC is hung by a thin wire of negligible mass. A charge of -0.900 μC is held 0.150 m away from the sphere and directly to the right of it, so the wire makes an angle with the vertical (see the drawing). Find (a) the angle and (b) the tension in the wire.

2. Ortho-dichlorobenzene has a molecular weight of 147.00 g/mol, but its MS has a very small relative abundance of the 147 peak. Instead, it has peaks at 146 (100% relative abundance), 148 (65%), and 150 (10.6%). The peak at 147 is about 6.6% as big as the 146 peak. What causes this distinctive molecular ion region for this compound? What peaks (note the plural) would you expect to see on the mass spectrum for the fragment (note the lack of...
