Show work pleeeease, Thanks!

In a thundercloud there may be an electric charge of +40 C near the top of the cloud and -40 C near the bottom of the cloud. These charges are separated by about 2.0 km. What is the electric force between these two sets of charges (k 1010 N.m2/C2) The force on a point charge, q, located along the z axis due to a uniformly charge ring of total charge Q and radius R is given by KQqz /(za R2) 2 (a) find the points along the z axis where the force is maximum (b) What is the magnitude of this maximum force. (c) Qualitatively draw the force as a function of z.

Explanation / Answer

force bertween two charges is given by F = kq1q2/r^2

F = 9e9 * 40*-40/2000^2

F = -3.6*10^6 N ( attractive force)
