Question

Three charges are arranged as shown in the figure below. Find the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force on the charge q4.80 nC at the origin. (Let r12 0.260 m.) 6.00 nC 0.100 m -3.00 nC magnitude Use Coulomb's law to find the force that each charge exerts on the charge at the origin and combine the forces to find the net force. N direction Examine the diagram and determine which quadrant contains the angle of the net force. counterclockwise from the tx-axis Need Help?

Previous Answers SerCP11 15.2.P015 Two small metallic spheres, each of mass m 0.35 g, are suspended as pendulums by light strings from a common point as shown in the figure below. The spheres are given the same electric charge, and it is found that they come to equilibrium when each string is at an angle of 4.7 with the vertical. If each string has length L 39.0 cm, what is the magnitude of the charge on each sphere?
