Question

(a) Did you drawthe 3 particles on an x axis? Did you draw the forcevectors on the third particle, with the tail of the each vectorpositioned on the particle? Are the vector orientations correct togive a net force of zero? If the third particle is positive, whatare the signs of the other 2 particles to give this vector drawing?What is the relation between the 2 force magnitudes? Did you set upan equation expressing that relation? Did you plug in correctly forthe distances? (b) Did you repeat this procedure?

Explanation / Answer

component of the net electrostatic force on particle 3 inx-axis k*q2*q3/(a2)2*cos45 +k*q3*q4/(a2)=0.098 N component of the net electrostatic force on particle 3 in yaxis k*q2*q3/(a2)2*cos45 -k*q3*q1/(a2)= -0.075 N
