Healthy red blood cells are negatively charged, but unhealthy cell (due to presence of bacteria, for example) can become positively charged. In the figure, three red blood cells are oriented such that they are located on the corners of an equilateral triangle. The red blood cells charges are A = 1.645 picoCoulombs, B=7.308 picoCoulombs, and C= -3.903 picoCoulombs. Given these charges, what would the magnitude and direction of the electric field be at cell A? (1 picoCoulomb = 1 x 10-12 Coulomb.) (Use two decimal place approximation for your result.)

A common demonstration involves charging a rubber balloon, which is an insulator, by rubbing it on your hair and then touching the balloon to a ceiling or wall, which is also an insulator. Because of the electrical attraction between the charged balloon and the neutral wall, the balloon slicks to the wall. Imagine now that we have two infinitely large, Hat sheets of insulating material. One is charged, and the other is neutral, lf these sheets are brought into contact, does an attractive force exist between them as there was for the balloon and the wall?
