Problem 1 The Van de Graaff electrostatic generator develops a charge of approximately −1 × 10−5C and a pith ball has charge of approximately 1 × 10−9C. Which of the following describes the relationship between the size of the force the Van de Graaff exerts on the pith ball and the size of the force the pith ball exerts on the Van de Graaff? Select One of the Following: (a) The Van de Graaff exerts a much larger force on the pith ball. (b) The pith ball exerts a much larger force on the Van de Graaff. (c) The forces have the same magnitude.

Answer:

(c) The forces have the same magnitude.

Explanation:

The electric Force between the two charges are proportional to the product of both charges:

[tex]F_{electric}=k*q_{1}q_{2}/r^{2}[/tex]

Both charges feels the same force but with opposite direction.

(c) The forces have the same magnitude.
