Calculate the magnitude of the charge on the drop

Reference no: EM13524382

A positively charged oil drop of mass is injected into a region of uniform electric field between two oppositely charged, horizontally oriented plates spaced 16 cm apart. If the mass of the drop is 7.0 10-15 kg and it remains stationary when the potential difference between the plates is 4.88 kV, what is the magnitude of the charge on the drop? (Ignore the small buoyant force on the drop.)
