Question

A 28.91-mC charge is placed 32.15 cm to the left of a 68.23-mC charge, as shown in the figure, and both charges are held stationary. A particle with a charge of -2.551 μC and a mass of 39.81 g (depicted as a blue sphere) is placed at rest at a distance 28.94 cm above the right-most charge. If the particle were to be released from rest, it would follow some complicated path around the two stationary charges. Calculating the exact path of the particle would be a challenging problem, but even without performing such a calculation it is possible to make some definite predictions about the future motion of the particle. If the path of the particle were to pass through the gray point labeled A, what would be its speed vA at that point?

Answer 1

Hello, you forgot to upload the figure. Without figure, I didn't know the distance between charges when the charge has moved to point .

However I have solved it and you just need to put values of distance which is pretty easy and straightforward. Let me know if you have any difficulty or get stuck anywhere.....I have written which distance to put where.
