A small ball that has a mass m=6.00x10*kg and a net charge q is hanging from a string. When a second charge Q=+5C is brought near the ball, it holds the ball at rest in the position shown in the figure. In this position the string makes an angle of 35.0 with the vertical and Q is 0.250m from the small ball. a) Draw the free body diagram for the ball and apply Fnet ma to the x and y directions. b) Use your equations from part a) to find the magnitude of the charge on the ball. What is the sign of the charge on the ball? Q=+5C q=? 0.250m 35.0 X A small ball that has a mass m=6.00x10*kg and a net charge q is hanging from a string.
