Measurements show that a honeybee in active flight can acquire an electrostatic charge as great as 93 pC. 1) How many electrons must be transferred to produce this charge? 5.81*10^8 2) Supposing two bees, both with this maximum charge, are separated by a distance of 9 cm. What is the magnitude of the electrostatic force between the these two bees? (You may treat the bees as point charges.) N Submit 9.597*10^-9 Submit 3) What is ratio of this electrostatic force to the gravitational force between the two 0.14 gram bees? (IFE1/IFGrav!) Submit 4) Now suppose the distance between the two bees is doubled to 18 cm. What is ratio of the electrostatic force to the gravitational force between the two bees? (IFE1/IFGrav!) ************ Submit 5) Finally, suppose the distance between the two bees is cut in half to 4.5 cm. What is ratio of the electrostatic force to the gravitational force between the two bees? (IFEI/IFGrav!) Submit monon
