Answer:
The magnitude of the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.
Explanation:
Given that,
Point charge at origin = 2 nC
Second charge = 5 nC
Distance at x axis = 8 m
We need to calculate the electric field at the point x = 2 m
Using formula of electric field
Put the value into the formula
The direction is toward positive x- axis.
Hence, The magnitude of the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.
Answer:
a) F₃₁ = 63.0 μN
b) F₃₂ = - 14.0 μN
c) q₂ = - 5.0 nC
Explanation:
a)
- Assuming that the three charges can be taken as point charges, the forces between them must obey Coulomb's Law, and can be found independent each other, applying the superposition principle.
- So, we can find the force that q₁ exerts along the x-axis on q₃, as follows:
b)
- Since total force exerted by q₁ and q₂ on q₃ is 49.0 μN, we can find the force exerted only by q₂ (which is along the x-axis only too) just by difference, as follows:
c)
- Finally, in order to find the value of q₂, as we know the value and sign of F₃₂, we can apply again the Coulomb's Law, solving for q₂, as follows:
