Abumblebee flying through the air picks up a net charge of +40 pc, due in part to the triboelectric effect (charge transfer by friction) from collision with small dust particles*. the presence of this positive charge on their bodies the bumblebees locate negatively charged flowers when foraging for pollen and nectar**. the natural electric field near the surface of the earth has an average magnitude of 120 n/c and is directed downward. the mass of a typical bumblebee is 0.10 grams. calculate the ratio of the coulomb force on the bee to the gravitational force on the bee. note that (1pc = 10^{-12} c)(1pc=10 −12 c). [for small number answers, use the scientific “e” notation : 0.0076 = 7.6e-3 ]

Ineed this now one scientist feels that the changes in global climatic patterns may be good for the health of the biosphere. another scientist feels that sharp changes in climatic patterns could result in the extinction of the biosphere. which of these is the most likely reason the two scientists gave conflicting opinions on the impact of changes in the global climatic pattern? they do not have enough knowledge on the topic. they did not discuss the issue among themselves. they believe conflicting opinion strengthens science. they study different areas of science and have different scientific focuses.
