When a bee hover's near a flower's anther, which is electrically insulated, the pollen grains jump to the bee.
Assuming that a bee with a typical charge of 45pC is a spherical conductor, find the magnitude of the bee's electric field at the location of a pollen grain .02m from the bee's center.

Better yet assume it is a point charge(either way it is the same accept inside the bee)
E=kq/R^2
E=8.988 e+9 x 45 e-12/(.02)^2
E=1011 N/C
