In the figure below we have a charged particle with mass m 

In the figure below we have a charged particle with mass m and charge q in an electric field E that is held in place by the string it is attached to. a) Draw a free body diagram for the forces acting on the charged particle a. Must include axis that show which directions are positive b) Using Newton's 2nd Law, find the equation that describes the tension on the string c) Given the charge and magnitude of the electric field below, give the numerical value of the tension in Newtons q = 3 * e = 3 * 1.6022 * 10-19C m q N = 4 * 1016. C m = 1g = 1 * 10-3kg
