An object of mass 5 × 10-6 g is placed over a thin positively charged sheet of surface density of charge σ = 4.0 × 10-6C/m2 (figure shown below). Estimate the charge that should be given to this object so that upon release it will not fall down. Calculate the number of electrons that is to be removed to give this charge. How much mass loss is caused by this removal of electrons?

In the early 1900's Robert Millikan discovered the peculiar property that charge came in little packets, no smaller than e = 1.602 x 10-19 C -- he had measured the charge of the electron. Here's (roughly) how he did it. He removed an electron from an initially neutral droplet of oil with diameter 0.5 ??μm. In a vacuum, he positioned the droplet between two metallic plates separated by 6 mm and fiddled with the potential (voltage) across the plates until the droplet would hover against the force of gravity. Droplets of this size with +e charge would hover, but only for a particular voltage (otherwise they would sink or rise). Given the parameters stated here, and the fact that the density of the oil was 831 kg/m3, what was the voltage that made the droplets hover? (give your answer with 0.1 V precision)
Because the charges on the electron and proton have the same absolute value, atoms are electrically neutral. Suppose that this is not precisely true, and the absolute value of the charge of the electron is less than the charge of the proton by 0.00100%. Estimate what the net charge of this textbook would be under these circumstances. Make any assumptions you feel are justified, but state clearly what they are. (Hint: Most of the atoms in this textbook have equal numbers of electrons, protons, and neutrons.) What would be the magnitude of the electric force between two textbooks placed 5.0 m apart? Would this force be attractive or repulsive? Discuss how the fact that ordinary matter is stable shows that the absolute values of the charges on the electron and proton must be identical to a very high level of accuracy.
