Q4PhysicsUnit 11: Electrostatics
The voltage required to balance an oil drop carrying 10 electrons between the plates of a capacitor which are 10mm10 \mathrm{mm} apart, is (Given mass of the oil drop= 32×1015kg,e=1.6×1019C)\left.\mathbf{3} \cdot \mathbf{2} \times \mathbf{1 0}^{-\mathbf{1 5}} \mathbf{k g}, \boldsymbol{e}=\mathbf{1 . 6} \times \mathbf{1 0}^{-\mathbf{1 9}} \mathbf{C}\right)
Q5PhysicsUnit 11: Electrostatics
The top of the atmosphere is about 400 kV with respect to the surface of the earth, corresponding to an electric field that decreases with altitude. Near the surface of the earth, the field is about 100Vm1100 V m^{-1} Still, we do not get an electric shock as we step out of our house into the open house, because (assume the house to be a steel cage so that there is no field inside)
