Question
Two small spherical balls each carrying a charge (10 micro-coulomb) are suspended by two insulating threads of equal lengths 1m each, from a point fixed in the ceiling. It is found that in equilibrium threads are separated by an angle between them, as shown in the figure. What is the tension in the threads (Given: )
- 18 N
- 1.8 N
- 0.18 N
- None of the above
The correct answer is: 1.8 N
In the following figure, in equilibrium Fe = T sin 30o, r = 1m
Þ =
Þ T = 1.8 N
