Question

A positive point charge q1 = 3.5 μC is located at x = 0, y = 0.30 m, a negative point charge q2 = -3.5 μC is located at x = 0, y = -0.30 m. A third point charge Q = 5.0 μC is located at x =0.40m, y= 0. A) What is the magnitude of the total electric force that charges q1 and q2 exert on charge Q? Express your answer in newtons. B) What is the direction of the total electric force that charges q1 and q2 exert on charge Q? θ = ? ∘ clockwise from the +x direction

Step 1

The distance r1 between q1 and Q is sqrt((0.40)^2 + (0.30)^2) = 0.50 m. The distance r2 between q2 and Q is sqrt((0.40)^2 + (-0.30)^2) = 0.50 m. Show more…
