AI Generated Solution

To find the electric field strength required to suspend a small water droplet against gravity, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Mass of the water droplet, \( m = 1 \, \text{g} = 1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg} \) - Charge of the droplet, \( q = 8 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{C} \) - Acceleration due to gravity, \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) ### Step 2: Calculate the gravitational force acting on the droplet ...
