Question:

Falling raindrops frequently develop electric charges. Does this create noticeable forces between the droplets? Suppose two 1.8 mg drops each have a charge of +25 pC; these are typical values. The centers of the droplets are at the same height and 0.40 cm apart. What is the approximate electric force between them? What horizontal acceleration does this force produce on the droplets?
