2. The electrostatic force on a small sphere of charge 0.4 mC due to another small sphere
of charge –0.8 mC in air is 0.2 N. (a) What is the distance between the two spheres?
(b) What is the force on the second sphere due to the first?
the corners of a square ABCD of side 10 cm. What is the force on a charge of 1 mC placed
at the center of the square?
4. A system has two charges qA = 2.5 × 10−7 C and qB = –2.5 × 10−7 C located at points
A: (0, 0, –15 cm) and B: (0,0, +15 cm), respectively. What are the total charge and
electric dipole moment of the system?
5. An electric dipole with dipole moment 4 × 10−9 C m is aligned at 30° with the direction of
A? uniform electric field of magnitude 5 × 104 N/C. Calculate the magnitude of the
a square of 10 cm on a side whose plane is parallel to the yz plane? (b) What is the
