Determine the mass of the second sphere

Reference no: EM13679532

A sphere with a charge q_1 = +2.56 μC and mass 50 g is fixed in place on an insulating wire that makes an angle of 42.3^o with respect to the horizontal. A second small sphere with charge q_2 = -10.12 μC slides without friction on the wire. At a distance d = 0.760 meter between the spheres, the net force on the second sphere is zero. Determine the mass of the second sphere? (Assume that the mass of the insulating wire is zero).
