Homework Statement



A balloon rubbed against denim gains a
charge of −2.0 μC.
The Coulomb constant is 8.98755 ×
109 N · m2/C2.
What is the electric force between the bal-
loon and the denim when the two are sepa-
rated by a distance of 6.0 cm? (Assume that
the charges are located at a point.)
Answer in units of N.
