1. Homework Statement :
the excess(equal in number) of electrons that must be placed on each of two small spheres spaced 3 cm apart, with force of repulsion between the spheres to be 10^-19N, is...?
3. The Attempt at a Solution :
since,
f=kq^2/r^2.
ive calculated q from here which is 1x10^-16N..
then used,
q=ne..
from here n becomes 625 electrons. but answer in my book is 25 electrons.can someone point out my mistake?
