Problem 1: Charge Q2 and charge Q1 each exert a force on charge Q3 (see figure 4). If the force on Q3 due to Q1 is F31 = 140 N and the force on Q3 due to Q2 is F32 = 325 N, find the net force F_net acting on Q3. Represent the net force in terms of a magnitude and a direction. Figure 4: Forces on Charges [Diagram labels] F32 (upward) F31 (down-right along dashed line) Q3 = +65 ?C Q2 = +50 ?C Q1 = -86 ?C Distances: Q2 to Q3 = 30 cm (vertical), Q2 to Q1 = 52 cm (horizontal), Q3 to Q1 = 60 cm (dashed) Angle at Q1 between horizontal and dashed = 30°

Point charges q1 = 55 µC and q2 = -27 µC are placed 3.0 m apart, with q2 on the right. What is the force (in N) on a third charge q3 = 15 µC placed midway between q1 and q2? (Assume the positive direction is to the right. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Point charge q1 = + 6.0 nC is on the x-axis at x = - 3.0 cm. An identical point charge q2 = +6.0 nC is on the x-axis at x = +3.0 cm. A negative point charge q3 is on the y-axis at y = + 4.0 cm. What is the direction of the net force exerted on q3 by q1 and q2?
