Asmall metal sphere has a mass of 0.14 g and a charge of -22.0 nc . it is 10 cm directly above an identical sphere with the same charge. this lower sphere is fixed and cannot move. part a what is the magnitude of the electric force between the spheres?

For this problem, we use the Coulomb's law written in equation as:

F = kQ₁Q₂/d²
where
F is the electrical force
k is a constant equal to 9×10⁹ 
Q₁ and Q₂ are the charge of the two objects
d is the distance between the two objects

Substituting the values:

F = (9×10⁹)(-22×10⁻⁹ C)(-22×10⁻⁹ C)/(0.10 m)²
F = 0.0004356 N

A) acceleration. this seems to be the one that makes sense.
