1. A ball of mass m = 0.010kg and charge Q is tied by a very light string to the ceiling. The effects of a uniform electric field E = 5000 N/C has caused the charged ball to move to one side so that the string makes a 37-degree angle with the vertical. At this position, the ball is at rest.
a) Draw a free-body diagram for the ball.
b) Without any calculations, state whether the charge on the ball is positive or negative. Explain your decision.
c) Determine the tension in the string.
d) Determine the charge on the ball.
