Texts: - Part A Two tiny beads, each of mass 3.2 g, carry equal-magnitude charges. When they are placed 6.4 cm apart, they experience an electrostatic force of 538 mN. What is the magnitude of the charge on each bead? K = 1/4πε₀ = 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C². Texts: - Part B A positively charged particle with a charge of 5.10 nC and a mass of 890 ng is accelerated from rest. After a certain time, its charge decreases to 4.4 nC. What is the change in the particle's electric potential energy? K = 1/4πε₀ = 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C². Texts: - Part C A negatively charged particle with a charge of 1.3 μC and a mass of 300 mg is accelerated from rest. After a certain time, its charge decreases to 600 nC. What is the change in the particle's electric potential energy? K = 1/4πε₀ = 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C².
