A) Electrons

B) From the sphere to the rod

C) $3.75\cdot 10^{10}$

Explanation:

There are two types of electric charges that can be transferred:

- Negative charge: this is typically transferred by electrons, which reside in the outer parts of the atom. Electrons are negatively charged, and they have a charge of $-e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ (fundamental charge).

- Positive charge: this is carried by the protons, which actually reside in the nucleus of the atom. The charge of a proton is $+e=+1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ .

Since protons are inside the nucleus of the atom, they usually don't move around, so in normal conditions the electric charge between different objects is carried by electrons, not protons.

Therefore in this case, the charged particles transferred between the rod and the sphere are electrons.

In this problem, we have:

- At the beginning, the glass rod has a net positive charge of

q_i=+14.0 nC

- After the process and having touched the metal sphere, the glass rod has net positive charge of

q_f=+8.0 nC

This means that the glass rod in the process has lost a positive charge of

$\Delta q=+14.0-8.0=+6.0 nC$

Since we said that the charge carriers are the electrons (not the protons), in order for the glass rod to lose a positive charge, it means that it has actually gaind a negative charge: therefore, this means that electrons have moved from the metal sphere to the glass rod.

In part B, we calculated that the net charge gaind by the glass rod is

$\Delta q=+6.0 nC$

Converting into SI units,

$\Delta q=+6.0\cdot 10^{-9}C$

We said that the charge carriers in this case are the electrons: so, the actual charge transferred from the metal sphere to the rod is

$\Delta q=-6.0\cdot 10^{-9}C$

This charge actually consists of N electrons, so we can write:

$\Delta q =(-e)N$

where

N is the number of electrons

$-e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ is the charge of each electron

And solving for N, we find:

$N=\frac{\Delta q}{-e}=\frac{-6.0\cdot 10^{-9}}{-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=3.75\cdot 10^{10}$

An charge with mass m and charge q is emitted from the origin, (x,y)=(0,0). a large, flat screen is located at x=l. there is a target on the screen at y position y(h), where y(h) > 0. in this problem, you will examine two different ways that the charge might hit the target. ignore gravity in this problem. 1.assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive x direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive y direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l. 2.now assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive y direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive x direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l.
