The charge, local g, and the mass (inter allia?) are missing.


They're not missing. Part of real life problem solving involves
making educated assumptions.

But what would you use for a probable "Educated Assumption" for the
charge
on a charged pen? 1 uuC?? ....1 uC ? ...10 uC? ... 100 uC? .... or ???
