Two air-filled balloons each have a mass of m-3.7 g. Each balloon hangs from the same point by its own string of length Z-0.45 m. Each balloon is rubbed to give it
a
static charge. Both balloons are rubbed the same amount, so each balloon has the
same unknown charge (91-92). The hanging balloons push away until each makes
and angle of 0-15° with respect to the vertical.

Answer:

F = mg tan θ

Explanation:

For an object in equilibrium, the net force in the x and y directions must be zero. Drawing a free body diagram for the left balloon, there are three forces:

  • Tension force T pulling up 15° right of vertical
  • Weight force mg pulling straight down
  • Electrostatic force F pushing left

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T cos θ − mg = 0

T cos θ = mg

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T sin θ − F = 0

T sin θ = F

Divide the second equation by the first equation to eliminate the tension force T:

(T sin θ) / (T cos θ) = F / (mg)

tan θ = F / (mg)

F = mg tan θ
