1. A negative charge, -q, has a mass, m, and an initial velocity, v, but is infinitely far away from a fixed large positive charge of +Q and radius R such that if the negative charge continued at constant velocity it would miss the center of the fixed charge by perpendicular amount b. But because of the Coulomb attraction between the two charges the incoming negative charge is deviated from its straight line course and attracted to the fixed charge and approaches it. Find the closest distance the negative charge gets to the positive one.

please draw a diagram. Thank you!

A 0.00260 kg air‑inflated balloon is given an excess negative charge q 1 = − 3.25 × 10 − 8 C by rubbing it with a blanket. It is found that a charged rod can be held above the balloon at a distance of d = 0.0520 m to make the balloon float. In order for this to occur, what polarity of charge must the rod possess? proton ,positive, neutral, negative? How much charge q 2 does the rod have?...
