Question

A small sphere carrying a charge of q with mass m is suspended frompoint A by a massless thread of length L. A second sphere carryinga charge of 2q with mass M is suspended from a foxed rod from pointB. The distance between A and B is equal to d. At equilibrium thetwo spheres lie in the same horizontal plane and the thread makesan angle theta with the vertical.
a. Draw a clear free body diagram for the sphere suspendedfrom point A. b. Find an expression for the mass m in terms of q, L, d,theta, g(gravitational acceleration), and k (Coulomb constant). c.Find an expression for the tension T in the thread. d.What are the values of m and T if L=30 cm, d=10cm, q=3C, andtheta=30 degrees?

Explanation / Answer

Thank you for the help but the spheres are actually hanging from two seperate points, A and B, seperated by a distance D.
