What is the magnitude of the charge on the drop

Reference no: EM13491857

A positively charged oil drop of mass 2.4 10-15 kg is placed in the region of a uniform electric field between two oppositely charged, horizontal plates spaced 16 cm apart. The drop is found to remain stationary under the influence of the Earth's gravitational field and the uniform electric field of 6.1 104 N/C. What is the magnitude of the charge on the drop? (Ignore the small buoyant force on the drop.)
