Question:medium

A dust particle of mass 4 × 10⁻¹² mg is suspended in air under the influence of an electric field of 50 N/C directed vertically upwards. How many electrons were removed from the neutral dust particle? (g = 10 m/s²)

Show Hint

In electrostatic problems, equating the force due to the electric field with the weight of the particle can help find the charge.
