Open Question
A +8.75-mC point charge is glued down on a horizontal frictionless table. It is tied to a -6.50-mC point charge by a light, nonconducting 2.50-cm wire. A uniform electric field of magnitude 1.85 * 10^8 N/C is directed parallel to the wire, as shown in Fig. E21.34. (a) Find the tension in the wire.
