Question

In the figure, four particles form a square. The chargesare q1=q4=Q andq2=q3=q.
a) what is Q/q if the net electrostatic force on particles 1and 4 is zero?
b) is there any value of q that makes the net electrostaticforce on each of the four particles zero?

In the figure, four particles form a square. The chargesare q1=q4=Q andq2=q3=q.
a) what is Q/q if the net electrostatic force on particles 1and 4 is zero?
b) is there any value of q that makes the net electrostaticforce on each of the four particles zero?

Explanation / Answer

   --> Q / 2   = q

So Q/q = 2


(b) No.
